Woman, 25, dies after falling ill at Creamfields 2022 music festival

A woman aged 25 has died after she fell ill at the Creamfields music festival in Cheshire, police have revealed. The woman, who hasn't been named but is from the Neath area of South Wales, was taken to hospital last Friday night, but sadly died in the early hours of today, Tuesday.

Police said they were 'notified' she had taken ill at around 10.15pm on August 26 and confirmed she was taken to Warrington District General Hospital, where she passed away despite the best efforts of medics. Police chiefs said an investigation was underway but 'there is nothing to suggest that there are any suspicious circumstances'.

The news follows the sad confirmation of the death of a 16-year-old boy from Worsley, Salford, after he fell ill after taking drugs at the Leeds Festival. David Celino tragically passed away in the early hours of Sunday morning, August 28.
