Calvin Harris will return to Creamfields South next year after headlining both North and South editions in 2022. Other names on the bill included Fatboy Slim, Martin Garrix, Bicep, Carl Cox and Becky Hill.
This year marked the 25th anniversary of the festival. The 2021 edition of Creamfields saw performances from The Chemical Brothers, Chase And Status and Tiesto.
Swedish House Mafia announced their headline performance at Creamfields North during the Birmingham stop of their Paradise Again world tour last month (October 8), displaying their three dot logo alongside ‘Creamfields 2023’ on screens in the arena.
Meanwhile, Calvin Harris is among the line up for the electronic music festival Aravia by MDLBEAST, taking place in Qatar during the current 2022 World Cup.
MDLBEAST has courted controversy in recent years, with the DJs playing the brand’s Soundstorm Festival in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, receiving heavy criticism for their involvement with a company accused of “culture-washing” from the Saudi government to cover up perceived human rights abuses.
