Big Green Coach has a strict “no trolley” luggage policy in place. This policy helps manage storage space fairly and efficiently, especially when coaches are running at full capacity. Trolleys can take up a disproportionate amount of space in the luggage compartments, which can impact other passengers’ ability to store their bags. By limiting certain types of luggage, we can ensure there’s enough room for everyone’s belongings and avoid delays or difficult situations on the day of travel. We kindly ask all customers to respect this policy and travel with manageable luggage where possible.

Our primary ‘MEDICAL CENTRE’ located near the entrance to Downtown next to and near to the Steel Yard/Teletech Arena is open 24 hours a day across the event weekend with a wide range of fully trained medical staff including Doctors, Nurses, Paramedics, First Responders and Mental Health practitioners.   Our team are able to deal with the full range of emergency and urgent care medical problems and offers the same range of services as a conventional Emergency Department, including an on-site X-Ray service.  In addition to the primary MEDICAL and WELFARE points, we have various medical response teams positioned across the festival site as well as foot patrols across the campsite and event arena.

If you need Medical or First Aid assistance, and if you can, head to the MEDICAL CENTRE on site or approach a member of our First Aid or Medical teams who will be able assist.  If it’s an emergency reach out to the closest member of staff who will be able to contact our Event Control and get assistance to you; only dial 999 as a last resort as this may not be the best way of getting help to you on the festival site.

We don’t recommend that you try to make your own way off site to hospital, access to medical treatment is available on site, you may delay receiving treatment by trying to access health services elsewhere, if the medical site team do feel you need transfer to Hospital services they will make the appropriate arrangements.

Where is Welfare?

Located directly next to the Medical Centre is the ‘WELFARE TENT’ which is open 24 hours a day across the event weekend.   The Welfare Crew offers non-judgemental support to those vulnerable either through substance use, mental health, are a victim of an assault or sexual assault or those that are finding the festival environment too overwhelming in that moment.  A festival atmosphere and large crowds can be a trigger for some people, and our Welfare Tent is a safe space facilitated by trained and experienced staff where people can be cared for until they feel able to head back into the festival if they wish.

Their staff come from a range of professional backgrounds including drug and alcohol services, mental health, social care, youth, and medical services, with all staff trained in safeguarding and supporting victims of assault and recognising mental health and how to give immediate support.

The welfare team can also support you with arranging how to get home in an emergency, by making phone calls to family and friends to pick you up and then support you to the gates.

Do you have Back of House drug testing facilities? 

We continue to work with HazmatLINK who have been providing their back of house testing services at Creamfields for many years.  Their knowledge and expertise in identifying substances of concern allows us to alert festival goers based on results from our on-site lab.

More information about Downtown

Yes you can if you have purchased a camping ticket, but remember Creamfields is in the middle of a field, we recommend bringing a rucksack instead.

Day ticket holders can bring a bag no bigger than an A4 piece of paper.

No, please understand we have thousands of campers on site and even though they look pretty, unfortunately we don’t have enough space for you to erect a gazebo.

No glass is allowed at Creamfields. This includes perfume, foundation bottles, aftershave and mirrors. These are prohibited items and will be confiscated at the entrance (please note there is no facility to leave your belongings and collect after the show) so please double check before you arrive at the show.

*Small make up compact mirrors are acceptable.

No, sorry. Please leave speakers at home (we have lots of speakers in the event arena!). Portable speakers are a prohibited item and there is no facility to store prohibited items including speakers on site. Items confiscated will be discarded. The promoter is not responsible for abandoned items

If you are prescribed medication for continuous use, please ensure you bring it with you and take it as directed. Only the prescribed amount required for the duration of your stay at the event may be brought onsite. Medication must be in your name, and you may be asked to present identification to confirm this.

ALL medication should be in the correct packaging, and any loose medication not in the correct packaging will not be allowed into the festival.

If you have specific medication which requires refrigeration this can also be stored at the Medical Centre on site and must be labelled with the customer’s name and contact details.

Cheshire Police urge you not to risk bringing any illegal or unknown substances to the event. If you are found to be in possession of controlled drugs, new psychoactive substances or weapons, you are liable to prosecution. The possession of any amount of a controlled drug is a criminal offence and the supply of a controlled drug is an even more serious offence. Carrying controlled substances for others, such as a group of friends, is still considered as possession with intent to supply and will lead to prosecution and a likely prison sentence. We have countless examples of this happening, and it ruins people’s lives. No illegal drug-taking can be assumed to be safe, and there is no safe way to take them.

Think before entering the festival – Don’t bring any prohibited or illegal items with you or use the surrender (amnesty) bins provided to dispose of any controlled drugs, new psychoactive substances or weapons.

We are always thinking of ways to reduce the amount of crime at events but we need you to do your bit too:

• Put money, tickets, credit cards and mobile phones in a zipped pocket or use a money belt.
• Only bring what you need, excessive things that you don’t need are just more things you could lose.
• Avoid bringing or withdrawing large amounts of cash and keep it safe at all times. There are cash machines on the site should you need a top up.
• Postcode the property that you do bring to the event so it is identifiable.
• If you arrive by car, ensure that you leave the doors and windows secure and remove any items from view including sat navs, stereos, CD’s and mobile phones
• Use the lockers located in the Campsite Village for personal items you wish to store safely.
• Only bring the essential bank cards. Make a note of the numbers and store at home to make cancellation easier if they do disappear.
• Track your items, more phones and tablets have GPS tracking and can be located via an app such as “Find My iPhone”.

PROJECT SERVATOR 

Project Servator aims to disrupt a range of criminal activity, including terrorism.

Cheshire Police officers are experienced and specially trained to spot the tell-tale signs that someone is planning or preparing to commit this type of crime. There is nothing to suggest that Creamfields will be the target of this type of incident, but you can help us to make sure of it.

Please report anything that doesn’t feel right, for example, an unattended item or someone acting suspiciously, by telling a police officer, informing site security, or calling 999 if it’s an emergency

BE SAFE BE SOUND  

We are working with Counter Terrorism Policing to encourage live music fans to #BeSafeBeSound.

Counter Terrorism Policing is collaborating with the UK’s biggest music venues, arenas and festivals to deliver vital safety advice to the public.

We all have a role to play in keeping each other safe. Your safety is our priority and that’s why we have a comprehensive array of measures in place.
You can play your part by trusting your instincts, and if you see something that doesn’t feel right, tell security. Our teams will take every report seriously. You won’t be wasting their time.

Here are some quick tips to help you have a safe and enjoyable time:

• Arrive early, allowing more time for security checks and measures.
• Be patient with security checks. It might seem inconvenient, but they are in place to help you.
• Keep it simple and minimise what you carry. The more you bring, the longer it will take to get in.
• Stay alert and look out for each other. If you see something that doesn’t feel right, tell security. Don’t leave it to someone else.
• Don’t leave bags unattended. Never agree to look after a stranger’s bag, no matter how genuine they seem.

Have an amazing time, and if you see something that doesn’t feel right, report it to security straight away. Thank you for playing your part. #BeSafeBeSound.
