Creamfields Hong Kong 2025 Suddenly Cancelled

Ravers will be sad to hear that Creamfields Hong Kong has been suddenly canceled. The event organizers posted on their official Instagram account on February 17, announcing via Stories that the festival will no longer be taking place. All attendees will be fully refunded without needing to apply for compensation.

No official reason has been cited for the cancellation but of course, rumors have begun to swirl. Though not evident in the English Instagram Story, Creamfields’ Story in Chinese included the phrase ‘due to factors that cannot be resisted’. This year’s lineup did include Zedd as the headliner who apparently was banned from China. He ‘got permanently banned from China’ for liking a South Park tweet.

The offending tweet in question was related to the animated show’s 300th episode, which famously features the character Randy Marsh meeting Disney’s Pooh and Piglet when they’re all thrown into prison in China after Chinese president Xi Jinping was compared to Pooh in online memes. The episode triggered Chinese authorities, and South Park has since been removed from Chinese sites and social media platforms.

Let’s hope in 2026 Creamfields can return to Hong Kong again! Creamfields UK announced last year they will introduce a 360° Mega Stage.
