Creamfields is back after a year out and the gates are open to fans for four days of thrilling live music over the bank holiday weekend.
This year’s event, back in its iconic postcode, promises to be bigger and better than before – it has been in the making for over a year after all.
Like many festivals in 2020, Creamfields was axed last year due to the Covid-19 pandemic (with many events having to sit out this year too).
It’s a must for dance music lovers who flock to it year on year, selling it out each time.
Festival goers need to show their Covid-19 status to be granted access, through either proof of full vaccination (the second dose must be at least two weeks before the festival) or a negative lateral flow test taken before the day of travel.
So as Creamfields opens its doors after 732 days, here’s what you need to know.
Where is Creamfields?
The festival is in the countryside of Daresbury, Cheshire, just between Liverool and Manchester.
For those going by train, the nearest stations are Runcorn, Warrington Central, Warrington Bank Quay and Liverpool Lime Street.
Parking is available on site with more information here.

And there is much much more to see and do across the weekend.

Creamfields takes place from August 26-29.
