It's a horse of a different colour at Punchestown Racecourse today, when Cream sets up camp for a massive dance fest featuring The Chemical Brothers, Moloko, Basement Jaxx and Kelis. Clubbers will be converging on Creamfields from all corners, in search of thrills, spills and block-rockin' beats from a host of international DJs, including Laurent Garnier, Jon Carter, Paul Oakenfold, Seb Fontaine, Judge Jules, Darren Emerson, Goldie, James Lavelle and Dave Clarke.
With five arenas to choose from, everybody should be kept on their toes for the whole day; there's also a funfair for those who want to "take it higher". Irish DJ talent is well-represented, with sets from Mr Spring, Mark McCabe, Mark Kavanagh, Podge, Agnelli & Nelson, Tommy Stewart and Paddy Sheridan.
Buses leave O'Connell Street every 15 minutes between 11am and 4pm, returning to the city centre after the festival. Tickets for today's big dance meet are £49 from Ticketmaster (01-4569569) and return fare is £13.00 from Dublin Bus and from all Ticketmaster outlets.
