As we start preparing for a nasty winter, those in the southern hemisphere are getting ready to start the outdoor party season.
And what better way to kick it off but with a Creamfields?This year, the lucky southern hosts are Argentina and Mexico.
Last year was the first time Cream decided to hold their massive festival somewhere outside of the UK. Seeing as their last dj acquisition was an Argentine (Hernn Cattaneo) they decided to export Creamfields to Buenos Aires, Argentina. The party was held in November, 2001 and it was a big hit with 20,000 attendees.

While preparation for Creamfields Mexico is in full swing, there is another massive festival in the making. Acasoundfest will be held November 1 -3, 2002 in Acapulco, Mexico.
Headliners include Beck, Deep Dish, Danny Tenaglia, Danny Howells, Sander Klienenberg, Sasha & Digweed, Max Graham, Jimmy Van M., Lee Burridge, and Christopher Lawrence.
Acasoundfest's mandate isn't only to bring the best of the electronica scene together for a weekend of indulgence but also show how electronica is a catalyst for positive change. Acasoundfest has created the Million Wishes Latin America Charity Fund. This fund is in charge of responsibly directing the profit from the weekend to a variety of local charities which deal with AIDS/HIV, education and medical care for underprivileged citizens. A minimum of $120,000 USD in charitable donations has been guaranteed by the promoters.
