Parklife 2018 got some big names on their bill.

As we still sit in the cold weather, we know that once its over, comes better weather and with better weather comes festival season. Many festivals have already announced the spring line ups but as January closes out and February nears, it's time for the summer festival line ups to surface. A few have popped up already but more and more are beginning to unveil the star-studded appearance on their grounds. Today, U.K.'s Parklife festival reveals their line up with some pretty dope rappers coming through for it.

The Manchester based festival just revealed their festival line up earlier today with some of the hottest rappers set to take the stage. N.E.R.D and Skepta will be headlining the festival alongside Liam Gallagher and The XX. In addition to those names, A$AP Rocky, Earl Sweatshirt, Vince Staples, The Internet and many others will take the stage as well. While it is a festival in the U.K., they do have some of the biggest artists in U.K. hip hop and grime aside from Skepta. Expect performances from Giggs, AJ Tracey, Stefflon Don, J Hus, Bugzy Malone and others will also be gracing the festival. 

The festival is set to take place on the weekend of June 9-10 at Heaton Park, Manchester with tickets going on sale on Thursday. It's definitely a massive festival for anyone who's in the U.K. to attend. Hopefully, A$AP Rocky's scheduling is an indication we'll get his album before June but at this point, it's unsure.
