Dutch DJ Hardwell brings his brand of future rave to Creamfields North 2024

  • Hardwell headlines the ARC stage this year at Creamfields North 2024.
  • The DJ joins other headline acts on the new indoor main stage such as Calvin Harris and Alesso.
  • What could Hardwell drop during his set at Creamfields, and is his set clashing with any other sets on Friday (August 23 2024)?

Creamfields North 2024 is welcoming this year’s revellers to Daresbury Estate from today, as gates open and Friday headliner Hardwell prepares for his set on the ARC stage. 

The Dutch DJ, real name Robbert van de Corput, is one of dance music’s leading figures, having been ranked as the world’s number 1 DJ in 2013 and 2014 by DJ Mag, while also working with other such EDM luminaries as Tiësto. 

The DJ founded his own record label in 2010, Revealed Recordings, who have helped elevate emerging talent from the dance scene including Dannic, KSHMR, Thomas Gold and Maddix. But at one point, Creamfields North fans might not have seen Hardwell after his plans in 2018.

It was during that year the DJ announced he was going on hiatus from the relentless touring schedule that many DJ’s find themselves undertaking, to more importantly focus on his personal life and well-being.

Thankfully, a refreshed Hardwell returned in 2022, releasing the album “REBELS NEVER DIE,” which marked a shift from the progressive house style many became accustomed with for what is being called “future rave”;  a combination of techno and progressive house.

What time is Hardwell performing at Creamfields North 2024?

Hardwell will be performing on the ARC stage at Creamfields North 2024 on August 23 at 9:30pm BST, with an expected finishing time of 11pm BST.
