NEW SECURITY MEASURES

Creamfields is located in Daresbury which is a small village in Cheshire in the North West of England between Liverpool and Manchester.

Road closures will be in place for the event so we advise not to use sat nav, please follow festival signage which you will pick up as you approach the site.

The nearest train stations to the Creamfields festival site are Runcorn Station, Warrington Central, Warrington Bank Quay and Liverpool Lime Street, all of which are connected to the main line and have shuttle buses in operation.

Creamfields shuttle buses will be running throughout the days and nights of the festival weekend, taking you directly to and from the festival site.

We’re keen to be green and reduce our carbon footprint so please use public transport and the shuttle bus services we have provided. The Creamfields shuttle bus service operates from Liverpool, Manchester and Warrington (with a return service only available from the festival site to Runcorn & Widnes).

Shuttle bus tickets can be booked in advance from www.ticketmaster.co.uk or you can purchase your shuttle bus tickets on the day of travel (please note this excludes Manchester – you MUST purchase an advance shuttle bus ticket if you wish to use this route).

When you are leaving the festival, if you have not pre-purchased your shuttle bus ticket, you can purchase one from the shuttle bus box office located next to the bridge at the shuttle bus pick up point near to the north entrance, where the shuttle buses will be departing from.

Runcorn & Widnes tickets can only be purchased from the festival shuttle bus box office – there is no pre-booking available for these destinations.

All car parks are number coded so make a note of the car park you parked in (and take a photo!). Campsites are colour coded and remember which colour campsite you’re in, go one better and make your tent stand out so you can find it easier

Don’t lose your phone! If you do, make it easy for someone to return it to you by taking a screen grab of a contact number that you can be reached on and save as your wallpaper, if it’s found the good Samaritan can call and return it

Stay hydrated! Drinking water taps are located in the event arena and campsites so refill your water bottles regularly

Set times are announced at the show. Laminates can be purchased from official sellers and the merchandise stalls on site

Remember it’s a 4 day festival marathon…not a sprint! Pace yourself you’ll enjoy it more!

Create your own ‘quiet space’ – for a good kip make sure you bring earplugs & an eye mask

Leave a phone number in your purse/wallet so if its handed in we can call you and return it

CAN I BRING FOOD & DRINK? Yes if you’re camping. However, this can’t be brought into the event arena, the limit on alcohol you can bring is 1 Litre of spirits or wine + 1 crate of cans (24) per person.

ARE THERE SHOWERS? If you have a Gold, Silver, Bronze or Dreamfields camping ticket, you have access to hot showers & ‘proper’ toilets as part of your package. If you have a standard camping ticket you can purchase Club Class (access to proper toilets / hot showers/pamper room) for info go to www.clubclassevents.com/festivals/creamfields

CAN I CHARGE MY PHONE?Yes there are various phone charging stations on site. Pre book with Charge Candy now www.creamfields.com/concessions-facilities/charge-candy

WILL THERE BE LOCKERS?Yes, lockers are available to hire on site and located in the main arena. Please pre book as lockers are limited. www.creamfields.com/concessions-facilities/lockers

Creamfields is an 18’s and over only event with Challenge 21 in operation.If you can’t provide valid photographic and holographic identification when asked, your ticket will be confiscated and you will be asked to leave the festival. So if you are lucky enough to look under 21 please make sure that you bring an acceptable form of proof of age ID. Ticket prices subject to change. Line-up subject to change. No pass outs, no re-entry, no refunds. With Dreamfields Camping packages you have the option to buy your festival ticket and accommodation in one transaction. However, if you only book Dreamfields accommodation remember you still need to purchase a weekend camping ticket for the festival from one of our authorised ticket sellers to gain admittance.

Creamfields is renowned for its friendly crowd and we’re keen to retain its community spirit, and with over 60,000 people camping at Creamfields we need your help to do this. We’re asking people to look out for each other, so if you see someone looking the worse for wear or on their own and they look like they need some help then do the right thing, go over, check they’re ok and please alert a member of staff or security if you’re concerned.

Also this year be sure to check out our hubs and all new ‘Chill Out Zone’ in the campsite village. These are areas where you can go if you feel the need for a rest, escape from the music or just a chat with our friendly welfare staff. #CreamfieldsCares
