Sacha Lord, the co-founder of Manchester's Parklife festival and The Warehouse Project, has granted free entry for life to a couple who got engaged at the 2022 festival, as well as offering to pay for their honeymoon.

Last weekend a couple got engaged during Yung Filly's set at Parklife 2022, and after being trolled online, the festival's co-founder Sacha Lord launched a search to find the couple, offering them free tickets for life to Parklife and The Warehouse Project, as well as a free honeymoon.

Lord wrote on Instagram, "Yesterday an amazing moment happened as Parklife saw a proposal on stage from a young couple. Unfortunately, the internet reaction to two young people sharing a special moment was quite frankly vile."

He added, "I would like to find this couple and give them free entry to Parklife and The Warehouse Project for life and not only that, but to pay for their honeymoon, so that when they go away, I want them to sit there in the sun posting pictures to social media, knowing that those people who had a go at them are bitter, and they’re not there."
