The Chemical Brothers & Major Lazer

Plus an all-star DJ line-up, including...

Annie Mac – Armand Van Helden – Mk – Andy C – Seth Troxler – The Martinez Brothers – Jamie Jones - Maceo Plex – Four Tet - Eats Everything – Dj Ez - Floating Points – David Rodigan – Flume – Joseph Capriati – Adam Beyer – Ida Engberg – Solomun – Jackmaster – Nina Kraviz – Hannah Wants – Julio Bashmore – Steve Lawler - Wilkinson – Kurupt Fm – Gorgon City – Ben Klock – Dixon – Jamie Woon – B Traits – Alan Fitzpatrick – Black Coffee – Dusky – Joris Voorn – Skream - Amine Edge & DANCE – Preditah - Mura Masa – Special Request – Danny Howard – Ben UFO – Bicep – Maribou State – Hot Since 82 – Snakehips – Kink – Motor City Drum Ensemble – 99 Souls – Mista Jam – Lady Leshurr

Anybody else going?

Tickets went on sale this morning and I get paid tomorrow. Really hope they don't sell out before then

Yup, I've not been to a festival since 2009 due to work (chef) but I'm putting my foot down and booking the time off asap for this one. That's the best dance lineup I've ever seen and I'm not missing it. And having just seen Straight Outta Compton, can't wait to catch Ice Cube!

I've wanted to go for a few years but not massively feeling the line up this year. The artists I'd like to see are The Chemical Brothers, Skepta, Four Tet, Stormzy, Lethal Bizzle, Bugzy Malone, Skream (if he still played Dubstep), Dub Phizix & Strategy and Novelist. I REALLY wanna go to Outlook Festival though. That's my music down to an absolute tee. None of my mates are into it though so I go to nights on my own but I'm not brave enough to go to a festival in Croatia on my own haha

Tbh Parklife has always been more for the techno and house crowd. Sounds like Outlook would be more up your alley.

Skream has completely disassociated himself with dubstep after what it became. Now he's purely tech/house.

Me neither! Still need to get my arse into gear and sort out accommodation though

What are you doing for that? Hotel? I'm thinking Airbnb but a mate of mine just recommended couchsurfing.com

Awesome!

Can't believe it's actually cheaper to fly to Manc than go by train

Really doesn't surprise me. It's still a bit of a way from Manchester airport though. Take it you no car ?

Well yeah, but then again Manchester is still a bit of a way from Manchester airport

(I lived in Manc for 3 years and went to Warehouse Project a couple of years ago)

Come in your car and dos in that. Get a wash and changed at services. Knutsford isn't far but then will you sleep much anyway
