Craic by the Creek is a unique festival celebration of Irish music nestled into the rolling green hills of Cheshire.
Expect some of the biggest names in traditional and contemporary Irish music in the Greater Manchester countryside.
The festival will be suitable for all – bringing young, old, locals and those from afar all together for a jolly old knees up.

The CBTC team grew up in a busy and vibrant local Irish community in Greater Manchester with a plan to bring St Patrick’s Day – but BIGGER – to a nice hot summer’s day.
17% of the population listen to country music or Irish country and western music in the UK and Ireland – with a 316% increase in sales in the past six years.
That’s a lot of people who simply LOVE country music – and need somewhere to celebrate it.

There will be three days of band playing, beers, good food, camping and of course plenty of amazing music.
