CREAMFIELDS revellers are being urged to pack their wellies ahead of the August bank holiday dance music festival kicking off today, Thursday.
The site in Daresbury welcomed the first arrivals this afternoon as those with camping tickets were allowed on to the site.

But those smiles could soon disappear if they haven't packed their waterproofs.
The Met Office is predicting a 'decent day' tomorrow, Friday, but on Saturday dance music lovers can expect heavy, thundery showers with a yellow warning in place for rain.
Sunday will be cloudy with highs of 17 degrees and outbreaks of rain at times.
At the moment Monday looks to be the best day of the weekend with highs of 19 degrees.
Despite the rain, forecasters add there should be warm spells of sunshine throughout the weekend.
