Liverpool city centre Creamfields shuttle buses timetable and prices

Music festival Creamfields is back this bank holiday weekend for the 25th anniversary of the Northern festival. It is completely sold out with artists like Jax Jones, Camelphat and even Idris Elba set to perform.

The location of Creamfields itself is nestled around 40 minutes away from Liverpool near the town of Runcorn. With a capacity of around 70,000 fans and over 65 acts, the festival kicks off on Thursday, August 25 running until the early hours of Monday, August 29.

In a bid to reduce parking at the site, event organisers have set up shuttle buses to run from the major towns and cities surrounding Creamfields, including Liverpool. Tickets cost £6 for a single or £12 for a return.

These shuttle buses are likely to be in high demand so organisers are advising people to purchase their tickets beforehand. These can be bought until one minute before midnight on Thursday, August 25.

Tickets can also be bought when boarding the bus but customers will need to pay in cash and there is no guarantee of space. Buses are running regularly (listed as every hour, on the hour) but organisers warn if you miss one there may be a long wait for the next.

The timetable for buses is:

  • Thursday
    To site: 9am - 5pm
    Return: not available
  • Friday
    To site: 9am - 5pm
    Return: 10pm - 1am
  • Saturday
    To site: 9am - 6pm
    Return: 10pm - 5am
  • Sunday
    To site: 10am - 4pm
    Return: 10pm - 2am
  • Monday
    To site: not available
    Return: 7am - 1pm

The outgoing ticket needs to be booked for a specific date and time through Ticketmaster. Most are an automatic return ticket so will cost £12. Shuttles are likely to depart from Elliot Street in Liverpool City Centre but this is yet to be confirmed.

Creamfields do not allow re-entry once you have left the festival and shuttle bus tickets are only valid on one journey. Festival goers need to make sure they have everything they need before stepping onto the shuttle bus.
