Creamfields returns to Chester in 2026, continuing its legacy as a large-scale electronic dance music festival.

The festival now spans four days with camping options and attracts up to 70,000 attendees per day.
The 2026 edition is the Advance Hoodie variant, offering early access for dedicated fans. While the full lineup has yet to be announced, previous years have featured major electronic acts across multiple stages, including the Steel Yard and the Arc stage. The site has seen significant investment, including £2 million for security and environmental improvements in 2019, and the festival has hosted headliners such as Swedish House Mafia and Calvin Harris in recent years.
