Creamfields's final day has been cancelled after a copious amount of rain fell overnight, making the festival site unusable.

Earlier today (August 26th) festival organisers closed the entrance gates into the site at Daresbury in Cheshire due to flooding after heavy overnight rain. Due to the decision made jointly with local police, the site is now being evacuated completely and all performances scheduled to take place have been cancelled.

The organisers of Creamfields 2012 have issued the following statement on their website:
It is with regret that today’s event at Creamfields has been cancelled due to significant rainfall overnight and on site flooding. Every effort has been made to continue with the event and following an evaluation of the site the decision has been made by the promoters, Cheshire Police and multi agencies on site to close today’s final day in the interest of Health and Safety.

The heavy downpour overnight has created issues across the site leaving many areas unusable. It is our primary concern at this time that assistance is given to those on site and ensure those campers exit safely.
