So, whats everyone opinion on it now being 2 days with camping for £115. I for one doubt i'll be going this year, i can only manage the 1 day, work commitments, and £115 for one day is outrageous, i hope they consider offering single day tickets.

What made Creamfields so unique was that it was an overnight festival. 2 days makes it the same as every other festival thats about. Doubt i'll be going this year.Frown

For people who travel to get to creamfields this is great as it means twice as many acts/djs/etc, fantastic news if you have to travel for hours to get there - makes it worthwhile!

One night was always worth while! So hows it gonna work? Most 2 day festivals finish around 11pm and then open again the following lunch time. Will the dj's be playing overnight or finish early? So disappointed cause 2 days just won't be the same. Not impressed.

Not good if there's going to be a gap, will party still go through the night?

I live 10 minutes away from the site! Why would I want to pay £115 for a 2 day overnight camping ticket, who'd want to actually camp there & SLEEP! anyway. Its nothing more than another money grabbing stunt by Peter Greenhall, (aka LORD F***** Daresbury). the local robber baron. At least Dick Turpin wore a mask!!!

I think it's much better that it's a 2 day festival this year, just shows how Creamfields has grown and is improving each year! It's never long enough going home after 1 night and waiting a whole year until the next one! Also with it being 2 days allows more variation in acts and so something for everyone.

In reply to the acts finishing at 11, I think they will go on longer than that, the first night at Global the DJ's are on until 2a.m and the 2nd night til 6a.m.

I can't wait! x

You can usually buy them the day before from HMV, but seeing as this is a new format i wouldn't like to say....
