First Headliner announced for Creamfields - Swedish House Mafia

Festival Crowd Header

After months of speculation it’s finally been confirmed that the electronic supergroup Swedish House Mafia will be returning to the UK in 2019 to perform an exclusive one-off show

Following a global teaser campaign which has seen cryptic billboards, posters and screen ads pop up in cities across the UK, the rumours across the dance music community have been swirling, and after announcing their reunion last month which resulted in 3 sell out stadium shows in their hometown of Stockholm, followed by Mexico, it’s now time for UK fans to rejoice.

Commenting on their return:  "“The UK truly is our second home, whether it be at our very first Creamfields - or our last Milton Keynes Bowl, we want to bring it back to the festival.  We’ve missed you guys and we can’t wait for festival season! See you at Creamfields!” Axwell, Sebastian and Steve

Throughout their careers, the trio have had a long-standing relationship with Cream, performing together at their club ‘Nation’ in the early noughties before making their Creamfields debut under their ‘new’ Swedish House Mafia moniker in 2007, and this will be the first time the trio will perform together in the UK after a seven year hiatus.
