For those of you who are unfamiliar with Creamfields, it is the electronic party of the year with locations all over Europe and Latin America. For those of you who have experienced the craziness of Creamfields, you know that it is the \u2019it\u2019 place if you live for beats and bass.\u00a0Buenos Aires continually draws the more guests than any other venue with more than 50,000 people every year. Luckily for us here in Argentina, Creamfields has been mixing dance beats in Buenos Aires for the last 10 years with headliners including David Guetta, Paul van Dyk, The Prodigy, Paul Oakenfold, Dubfire and many, many others.<\/p>\n

In some countries Creamfields is a multiday event where you can spend the weekend camping. Here in Buenos Aires it is just a one day event, or more specifically, a one night event. It starts at 5pm and goes all night and well into the next day. DJs will be mixing all the latest tunes and their own dirty beats so don\u2019t plan on sleeping that night! If you are in Argentina studying abroad<\/a>, or perhaps doing the DJ program<\/a> with Mente Argentina, this is going to be the most important concert of your stay.<\/p>\n
