Creamfields 20: Colossal line-up revealed for 2026 anniversary edition

Creamfields has revealed its full line-up for 2026, marking 20 years at its Daresbury home with one of the most expansive programmes in the festival’s history.

Returning to Cheshire across the August Bank Holiday weekend (27th–30th August), the event will once again welcome around 80,000 fans for four days of the biggest artists.

More than 250 artists are set to perform across multiple stages. Headliners include Calvin Harris, Swedish House Mafia and Disclosure (Live), alongside Underworld (Live), Faithless (Live), Carl Cox, Becky Hill and Amelie Lens, who will present her AURA show as a UK festival exclusive.

Elsewhere across the weekend, the programme balances global names with established and emerging talent from across the electronic spectrum.

Artists such as LP Rhythm, Patrick Topping, Toriah, Harry Mannion and Mark Roma — whom we interviewed last year — join the bill, alongside Kaci Lea Lynch, Beccs Vernon, Toni, Lucia Cors and Anna Eager, all of whom previously featured in our Female Takeover Week.

Downtown returns following its debut last year, with wellness sessions, sport, pampering and surprise sets forming part of the broader Bank Holiday experience.

Having attended the 2025 edition, the Electric team experienced the atmosphere at Daresbury first-hand. As the festival marks 20 years, the 2026 event looks set to be one for the books.
