a few questions

[malibulucy]

First time at creamfields this year and since we have never been before we have a few questions that we hope you experienced fielders can help with. We are going for the day on sunday, getting the train and then the shuttle bus there and are wondering what time to get there for. We want to make the most of the day and see as much as possible but dont want to get there before anything happens. Is it worth going for the opening at 12 or would we be better aiming for the afternoon. We have general admission and know we are going to have to que to get in- again is it better to be there for the start at 12 or will the que likely be less later on?

once inside- how much can we expect to pay for food/ drinks etc just so we can figure out how much cash to take.

even if it doesnt rain will it still be muddy?

probably have more questions but cant think of them right now

expect to pay £50 for a burger and a bottle of water...

now come on CeeCee its not exactly that expensive haha, if i remember rightly it was £3 for a bottle of smirnoff ice or bottle of lager, spirits nd mixers more, dont know how much water is cos i try stick to the alcohol and i cant remember how much the food prices were but not as cheap as maccy ds lol,

last year it was sunny on the saturday and the fields stayed dry but sunday it rained and it was a mud bath! hope this helps =)

[CeeCeeLuvsDancing]

Lol possibly not that pricey. Though I do remember one year getting no change from a tenner for two trays of chips and a bottle of water.

lol... no matter what entrance you use ... you still have to que .... to be searched and whatnot...

[malibulucy]

cheers guys for that, No we are well aware we will need to que and have no issue with this just want to know what sort of time we should be aiming to get there for to minimise the queing where possible, At the end of the day we know we need to que and are prepared to stand in a line etc just dont want to miss some essential people whilst still stood in the que so just trying to figure it out. Random question on id too im 25 and usually dont get id many places anymore however i dont drive and so only have my uni id etc should i get id will this be enough to get me in? there is no way i am taking my passport not least as i am off on hols the following weekend cannot be trusted with these things when drunk!! i am SO excited i cant wait!!

youy should come to Liverpool and get my fun bus seeing as you are coming on the Sunday x x x

[malibulucy]

i had thought of this but then the time it takes to get to liverpool then on the bus surely is the same time it would take to get to warrington and then the shuttle bus no? i dont live there now so i could be totally wrong with timings etc only ever been to l pool on the train once and remember it took about an hour ish from preston? do you have seats left on this super shuttle bus of yours? if so i may deffo be interested

[Dis©oDan]

yeah theres places, but I would advise you go straight to warrington petal.... and hop on a peasant "arriva" bus there x x x

[malibulucy]

i think that may be the best plan, the train to liverpool takes an hour and half! i checked last night lol. warrington it is just an hour so i can spend that extra half an hour waiting to hop on a lovely arriva bus with the rest of the motley crue that will be around! cant wait!

hello...

I connect to that topic ... I am from Germany, recently living in the UK and I was only on the Polish Creamfields. wants to know whether the standard for saturday when I have a ticket I can buy alcohol? and some food? not everything is available for all so why I got this question. Greets

[fudgie]

does anyone know how far the walk from the drop off point to the campsite is?

[Dis©oDan]

its not that big of a site to be honest... everything is withing walking distance....

As for our German friend... hello and welcome... yup you can buy alcohol from the bars and there are plenty of vendors for the old munchies (not that I will be eating...liquid meals for me)
