How to get last-minute tickets to Parklife from £100 each as Ticketmaster host fan-to-fan sale

Parklife Festival is set to take over Heaton Park this weekend as the likes of Aitch, Becky Hill, Annie Mac and The 1975 take to the outdoor stage. With just five nights to go until one of Manchester's biggest events fans can still get tickets.

The two-day event takes place this Saturday, June 10 all the way through to Sunday, June 11, which has seen thousands of fans flock to ticket sites and snap up tickets since the original launch at the beginning of February. Despite retail sites stating general admission is 'sold out' we've found available tickets from £100.

Although not immediately obvious online, Ticketmaster is selling both Saturday and Sunday general admission tickets, for those who buy through its fan-to-fan resale platform, or marketplace.

Recap: Parklife tickets general sale - Fans snap up tickets at Ticketmaster launch despite site running on go-slow

Once online fans should head to the Parklife page on Ticketmaster as normal and head to the online queue, once joined it's pretty clear that there is limited availability and shortly afterwards the dreaded 'we couldn't find your tickets' message will appear.

It's here where the 'surprise' remaining general admission tickets will show, in a very distinct purple. These are resale tickets, and having previously been bought by fans are not up for sale again on Ticketmaster. For both Saturday 10 and Sunday 11 dates tickets can be bought here from £92.50.

Prices vary between £92.50 to £126.50 as it stands, but prices will rise depending on the seller's set price.

The more expensive VIP tickets can also be found on resale, and start at around £115 all the way up to £161. These are for the full weekend and not the whole weekend.

Fans can scroll down to the individual Saturday or Sunday VIP day tickets on Ticketmaster, which don't seem to have anywhere near as many resale options compared to the full weekend ticket. Currently there's only one Saturday ticket priced at £115.

Extra tickets including car park and the Parklife Travel pass are still available to buy on Ticketmaster for either full weekend or specific day passes, at £11 each. The pre-bought travel pass gets you access to the Metrolink or bus routes.
