Day one at Parklife, completed it mate
Parklife hasn't been this hot for years. It's truly been a scorcher with temperatures soaring to 28 degrees. Festival-goers were wilting for the first couple of hours, seeking out shade wherever they could.
Luke Parkinson, 20, from Oldham, Chelsea Stone, 20, from South Africa, Euan Ogwin, 21, from Kenya and Adam Sharp, 20, from Oldham were all sporting pink so they would stand out in the crowd. Chelsea said: “I just wanted everyone to know that we’re all together. It’s also easier to find each other when we’re all wearing the same colour, you know what to look out for!”
British drum and bass band Rudimental followed Raye on the Parklife stage. They last played Parklife way back in 2018, with their last appearance in the city being a slot at the Warehouse Project in 2021. The rapper then treated crowds to a rendition of 'Two Worlds Apart' before telling them, "we're only just getting warmed up, Manny sing this s*** with me, before really getting the audience going with 'I Love You, I Hate You'. Simply put, it was a sublime set from someone who is the master of her craft.
