Josh Baker, KETTAMA and Prospa to headline Creamfields Friday in B2B2B

Creamfields has revealed Josh Baker B2B KETTAMA B2B Prospa as its Friday ARC-stage headliner for 2027, alongside plans for a new Runway 2.0 arena. The festival’s 30th anniversary edition will bring the three acts together on Friday 27th August.

Baker’s underground house sound will meet KETTAMA’s high-energy approach and Prospa’s blend of rave nostalgia and euphoric club music as they come together for a special shared set.

The shared billing follows strong demand for three Finsbury Park shows. According to Creamfields, 200,000 fans signed up for those shows before tickets for all three dates sold out; next summer, the acts will head to Daresbury.

Alongside the line-up news, Runway 2.0 is planned to combine elements of the original Runway and HALO stages. Organisers’ plans put its capacity at 20,000, with a 60-metre-long, 40-metre-wide footprint, a circular arena layout and a structure extending above the audience.

Three overhead diamond structures, each described as 15 metres, will carry LED video screens. Visuals and video will run from the stage across the diamonds, with lighting surrounding the crowd and the DJ at the centre of the production.

Lucid Creates, the studio behind both earlier concepts, is designing the new arena and has worked with Creamfields since 2022. The original Runway arrived that year, followed by HALO in 2025: a 45-metre circular arena with 360-degree and overhead video, lighting and sound. Organisers say demand for Runway’s return prompted the revisit.

Creamfields takes place from Thursday 26th to Sunday 29th August 2027 in Daresbury, Cheshire, with the new arena due to debut during the anniversary weekend. For official event details and ticket information, head to the Creamfields website.
