One of the world’s largest dance music festivals is back again and bigger than ever. Creamfields, located in Daresbury, UK, will host their 21st edition over England’s August Bank holiday weekend, August 23rd through 26th.
As always, Creamfields is bringing a diverse set of artists for the weekend. With four artist pre-lineup announcements, they revealed that there will be performances by The Chainsmokers, Carl Cox, Marco Corola, and to end the weekend off, a rare set of Eric Prydz presents Holo.

With the announcement of Eric Prydz’s Holo show, the internet flocked to grab tickets. Fans from all over the world want to experience the progressive master’s unique, immersive hologram experience under the roof of their very own Steelyard Arena. Prydz has performed a closing set inside of the Steelyard Arena, but hasn’t brought his hologram production until now. 2017 brought Eric’s Epic 5.0 Creamfields, consisting of Prydz’s beautiful cube along with the worlds largest ever hologram. With such a stunning performance last year, what can we expect the festival to bring to the table this year?
With the initial excitement already buzzing from fans, Creamfields announcement of the full lineup is yet again dropping jaws. Four days of unbelievable names and curated stages from around the world, including Pete Tong, Virtual Self, Adam Beyer, Andy C, Paul Van Dyk, and many more. This year’s lineup is looking to rival that of some of the world’s biggest electronic festivals.
