What is it?

Creamfields is renowned for being one of the biggest and best dance and electro festivals in the world. Each year the cream of the crop on decks are attracted to Halton, Cheshire to mix some of the biggest tunes of the summer. Crowds of over 40,000 packed in at last year’s Creamfields which had various stages and tents to house party animals and party starters. Even more are expected at Creamfields 2011 as the festival continues to grow. David Guetta, Deadmau5 and Tiesto were amongst the people who performed in 2010, and it's an equally huge Creamfields 2011 line up. The Chemical Brothers end a four year hiatus from the festival to headline, while David Guetta, Tiesto, Katy B, Magnetic Man and Calvin Harris to name just a few are also performing.
