Creamfields Announces New 360° Outdoor “Mega Stage”
The organizers of Creamfields have revealed HALO, an innovative "mega stage" coming to the popular electronic dance music festival in 2025.
HALO serves as both a rebrand and an expansion of Creamfields' fan-favorite Runway stage, which debuted back in 2022. The cyclical outdoor arena stands at a diameter of 45 meters and will be outfitted with "pioneering 360 and overhead video, lighting and sound" from the multi-disciplinary UK design studio Lucid Creates.
"We're incredibly grateful to be given the space and the opportunity to create such ambitious structures and shows like Runway and now HALO with Creamfields," said the firm's Founder and Creative Director, Chris Carr. "It's not an easy thing to pull off, but creating these groundbreaking experiences really is what drives us all."

2025 is set to be the festival's "most ambitious" year yet with regard to its production, per the press release. The reveal of HALO follows that of another groundbreaking stage, APEX, which Creamfields claimed will be "the largest indoor festival superstructure in the world."
APEX is expected to have a capacity of 30,000, topping that of Madison Square Garden, Hollywood Bowl and the Gorge Amphitheatre, among other iconic music venues.
Creamfields returns to the Daresbury Estate in Cheshire, England over Bank Holiday Weekend from August 21-24. The 2025 lineup has not yet been announced at the time of this writing.
Tickets will go on sale Wednesday, October 30th at 9am GMT.
