Which is where I was! lol
Would of been good if they put like the Dutch tent in on the Friday! Oh well, just gonna have to get extra f*cked ;)

I think i might just have to pop my creamy fields cherry!

I'm gonna be totally honest and say i am not too bothered about the Tidy tent this year, as i cannot wait for Dizzee!!! (Sorry Sween!) ;)

argh!

Sorry you feel that way, but hopefully you can have a little look around the site and check out the Residents Arena, or one of Mixmags surprise guests will bring a little more stuff for you.

The 11 o'clock finish is due to the licensing laws unfortunately, but we do open earlier to make sure that you get the full 11 hours of clubbing! And last year we actually had some good feedback about the closing times. But if we could do anything to make it later we would try and we are looking into it for the next fear years!


I've just got back from the Cream Ibiza opening party and Ferry smashed it, you won't be dissapointed!


We've got loads of exclusives this year though, like Eddie presenting ED-IT, Luciano live, Laurent, we've got Goodgreef Xtra Hard on the Sunday, and we'll soon have some more information on a live show from Bootek soon.


We really tried this year to bring an eclectic but pure electronic line up, glad you like it!


See you there for a beer! Cheers Jason!

Anyway, longest message in the world....I'm back to catch up on my sleep after Ibiza.......

Also, I saw the 2ManyDJs live show in Manchester a couple of weekends back! Was amazing, and is live with really great production, it is definately worth checking them out!

they are awesome!! :)

Thanks for reply.. See I don't mind the 11o'clock closing time, gives you time to get some rest before the long journey home, it just that for me everything I like is on the Sunday, Trance, Goodgreef, ED-IT not to mention Calvin Harris, Dizzee, Bassement Jaxx and the Dutch tent, gonna be hard to catch even half the stuff I wanna see.. We always go and check out every tent and stuff but there's always the one that you go back to with your favourite music playin.. I just don't see why there's not a bit for everybody on the Saturday..

Hi K2F...

Unfortunately we can't fit all genres of music into each day... I guess that the DnB fans out there might be wishing there was some on the Sunday as well.

Personally I'm a massive fan of hard dance (I've been at the last 5 Tidy Weekenders...) and it's a shame we can't fit it in both days...

A bit of tip - If you like tough techno, make sure you don't miss Mucky Beats set in the residents terrace... definately worth a listen :)

11 O CLOCK FINISH- SEE NOW I HADN'T EVEN NOTICED THAT...BUT BETTER AN EARLY FINISH WITH A DECENT SOUND, THAN THE PATHETIC TRADITION OF TURNING THE VOLUME DOWN TO SUCH LOW LEVELS THAT YOU CAN CRITICALLY EVALUATE THE FINER POINTS OF STRING THEORY BETWEEN YOUR GROUP...AT AN HOUR WHEN THE BIGGER KICKASS (AND THEREFORE MORE DESERVING OF MEGA DECIBELS)DJS ARE COMMENCING WITH THEIR SETS

We also have sound proofing in the arenas, made a massive difference last year, and will be in this year again!!

Yeah I understand what you mean mate, was just shocked to look at line up cos there's always seemed before to be a bit of trance or hard dance there both nights but hey, it's still not put me off goin and I'll defo check Mucky Beats out cos I do love a bit of techno... Sure it'll still be an awesome event cos they always are..

The early finish on the Sunday is wicked. I wasn't too keen originally before last year, then when i was tucked up in my own bed, at home (!) at 2am i was as happy as larry ;)

I'm a big fan of the early finish on the Sunday as it helps with recovery after 2 crazy nights!!

Also, can't beleive people are moaning about the Saturday lineup. Come on people, widen your horizons!! For me, Creamfields is all about having a wander and experiencing genres and DJ's / acts that you wouldn't go to see normally. I love it!!

hey, i live in n.ireland, and i really want to go, but don't where runcorn is or which would be the best way to get there, can ne one help

Daresbury is roughly 20 miles East of Liverpool, so grab a ferry from Dublin to Liverpool first. You can take a train from Liverpool to Warrington Quay Bank without changes during the day. From that station it's around 5 miles to Daresbury.

The bus operators put on buses to and from Creamfields to various places. It may be that Warrington Central is the better option for these. I'm sure someone can advise on that bit.

aw fanx ur a star..xx

We run buses to and from Creamfields, you can buy your tickets now. if you get to Liverpool lime Street train station then you can get a shuttle bus from accross the street - creamfields.com

Have fun!!

Chibuku on the Saturday looks imense and I love that the Swedish House Mafia have their own tent, it means whatever time it is on Sat I know I can dip in and out of a bit of house :) I reckon the acts on the main stage on Sunday will put on a well good display.. Def better to end it at 11 than have some poor DJ die on his arse cos th music's gota be turned down.. I know I won't stop partying at 11 anyway :)

Not a big fan of the way the music has been broken down this year this will be one of the only years i will not have been since it started.
