WELLIES and rain macs are out for the second day of Parklife 2016.
Revellers show no signs of being put off by the wet weather as they descend on Heaton Park for a Sunday of music and dance.
About 75,000 people are expected to turn out for the event today.
Early arrivies escaped the rain but the heavens look set to open.
Sunday is not promising good weather sadly, with a forecast of rain throughout the day and maximum temperatures of 16c.
Revellers have had to contend with muddy grounds but main stage acts like Ady Suleiman have brought a feel-good vibe.
Fortunately there’s plenty of live acts to raise the roof.
Hip hop legends De La Soul had the crowd jumping and cheering in the mud and slippy conditions haven't stopped audiences dancing in the tents for big DJ acts like 99 Souls.
Today's line-up includes headliners Major Lazer on the Main Stage and Busta Rhymes at The Temple. There’s also Jamie XX, Radio One DJ Annie Mac, singer Jess Glynne and hip hop legends De La Soul.
Who's up and ready for round 2? 🙌 💃 🚀
