Lil Wayne is to perform his first UK show in 14 years and his only European performance for 2022, at Cambridge’s Strawberries & Creem Festival. This year’s line-up is also a pivotal one, leading with 60% of female performers across the event. This comes in wake of their conscious effort to promote the Safe Spaces Now initiative with UN Women UK, last year.
2021 was a big year for festival founders Chris Jammer and Preyé Crooks, with Burner Boy headlining but this year is set to be even bigger with 100+ musicians across the event, including Ella Mai, Mabel, Knucks, Rema, Tiona Wayne, Juls, and stages by Notting Hill Carnival Takeover and Girls Can’t DJ!
The 3-day event will take place from 17-19 June 2022 in the scenic Childerley Orchard, Cambridge. Official partners of the main stage festival are the youth culture platform, ImJustBait so who knows what surprises are in store. As well as these, they have also announced a line-up for the Studio Dance Stage and The Renegade Roulade Drum and Bass stage!
Preye Crooks said: “This year, as we scale up to a full three days, we wanted to ensure our musical offering matched that level of ambition – as well as reflecting our incredibly diverse crowd. We have gone further than ever before to bring exceptional artists together, showing Strawberries & Creem to be a major player on the weekend festival scene.
“As a team, we also wanted to shine a light on some amazing genres and artists that aren't always celebrated in full at other festivals. We hope we have curated a truly representative and exciting lineup, one that offers an unrivalled experience to our festival-goers – covering everything from D&B and dance music, to reggae and R&B.”
