Post-Christmas blues have been hitting us hard this January. But good news - it's February tomorrow, which means we're nearing spring and summer. Most importantly, festival season.
To get in the mood, TheLADbible has partnered up with Manchester's Parklife Festival, arguably the UK's best party, and we're buzzing about the release of its 2017 line-up. We'll be there this summer so stay tuned for what we have coming up.
The two-day event will take place on Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th June at Heaton Park and will bring us headliners such as The 1975, Frank Ocean and Boy Better Know, as well as performances from A Tribe Called Quest, London Grammar, Two Door Cinema Club, Chaka Khan and Damian Marley.

The 1975's slot will continue their rise as one of the UK's biggest bands, following the success of their album 'I like It When You Sleep, For You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware of It' which reached number 1 in both the UK and the US.
Perhaps the biggest catch is Frank Ocean, in what will be his first UK festival appearance of 2017. Last August, Ocean released his second studio album 'Blonde' after a four-year break. Sunday 11th June will end a two-year hiatus from performing in the UK. A Tribe Called Quest will perform for the first time in the UK since 2013.

When it comes to dance, Eric Prydz, Fatboy Slim, Carl Cox and Pete Tong will be there to satisfy your every need, along with Moodymann, The Black Madonna, Fatima Yamaha and more.
More than 75,000 people per day will be at the party. Fancy being one of them? General admission will go on sale at 9am on Thursday 2nd February with weekend tickets starting at £96.50 and day tickets at £59.50.
