With new superstructures, arenas, and a mind-blowing line-up already filling the headlines in 2018, it’s hard to see where Creamfields can go next. Well, how about something completely different, in celebration of 21 years as one of the world’s leading electronic music festivals Creamfields just got bigger as they open up an all-new area this year nestled in the woods – Electric Oasis!
A carefully curated music and performance space exclusively for campers, set away from the main arena, the all-new village features live music, chill out beds, hammocks, theatre, comedy and ‘alternative’ circus performers plus an arcade of suitably fitting concessions ranging from Transformation & Beauty booths, glitter studios, massage and rejuvenation space and alfresco dining area. Expect a feast for the senses and leave your inhibitions at the entrance!
With less than 2 months to go until the big one, this is just the latest in a long line of exciting new additions to this year’s festival and follows news last week that there will be a series of special guest surprise sets happening each day this year! And with even more surprises still to come Creamfields 2018 is set to be its biggest yet!
Creamfields returns to Daresbury, Cheshire, UK for 4 days across the August Bank Holiday weekend, with over 30 stages hosted by some of the biggest names in electronic music including Above & Beyond, Adam Beyer, Alesso, Andy C, Annie Mac, Armin van Buuren, Armand van Helen, Axwell & Ingrosso, The Black Madonna, Carl Cox, Camelphat, The Chainsmokers, Chase & Status (DJ set), Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Diplo, DJ EZ, Duke Dumont, Dusky, Eric Prydz presents HOLO, Fatboy Slim, Faithless (DJ Set), Galantis, Giggs, Goldie, Green Velvet, Groove Armada (DJ Set), Hannah Wants, Hardwell, Hot Since 82, Idris Elba, Jamie Jones, Joris Voorn, Joseph Capriati, Kölsch, Krept X Konan, Leftfield (DJ Set), Loco Dice, Luciano, Major Lazer (Live), Marco Carola, Martin Garrix, Martin Solveig, Maya Jane Coles, Mistajam, MK, Nicole Moudaber, Oliver Heldens, Patrick Topping, Pete Tong, Ramz, Roni Size, Rudimental (DJ Set), Sasha & John Digweed, Sigala, Sigma, Skream, Solardo, Stefflon Don, Steve Angello (Live), Sub Focus, Sven Väth,, Tiësto, Timmy Trumpet, Virtual Self to name a few.
