Over the ten years of weekly Saturday nights at Nation, the club played host to many international DJ superstars, including Paul Oakenfold (who was resident DJ from 1997 to 1999), Paul van Dyk, Sasha plus early exclusive DJ sets from The Chemical Brothers.

An early forerunner to Cream were the nights held at Club 051 where the Cream regulars Andy Carroll, Paul Bleasdale and (founder) James Barton ran nights playing a mix of US and UK house music hosting such live PA's such as Aly-Us. Those nights moved on and Cream was born.

Paul Bleasdale was the main resident DJ at Cream from its beginnings in 1992 to the end of the weekly nights. After this, he played twice at Cream events at Nation; firstly in the Main Room at the club's 10th Birthday in 2002, then in the Courtyard on boxing night the same year. He has since retired from DJing.

Cream still holds sell-out events at Nation - typically four per year, at Easter, May Bank Holiday, October/November (for their annual birthday bash) and Boxing night.

The Cream-owned Nation complex is made up of 3 separate rooms, each of varying shape and size; the 1000 capacity Main room, 700 capacity Annexe and 1300 capacity Courtyard. Since Cream ended their weekly events, they have let Nation do other nights who have used the space for a variety of different events. Regular nights held at Nation since the end of the weekly Cream events include Godskitchen, Chibuku, MTV and Yo-Yo.

Cream has a dock-based bar in Liverpool located on the Albert Dock as Babycream which opened in 2004 as a joint venture with bar and club operator the Lyceum Group with another branch in Leeds opening soon afterwards and was intended to be the start of a new chain of bars across the United Kingdom with planned bars in Manchester, Glasgow and Swansea. However the Leeds branch was closed in 2006 and the other planned Babycreams had never opened .

Cream also hosts the dance festival Creamfields each year on August Bank Holiday weekend, opening at 3pm and finishing at 6am. Its own label continues to release many compilations each year.

Cream announced it was changing its name to Taste after its first three weeks due to a clash of names with a Birmingham based dance night. However the other event folded and the original name was kept.

The original owners of the Nation venue, Stuart Davenport and Lennie MacMillan, considered closing Cream due to low attendance in the first three weeks.

Cream PLC also own and manage other nightclubs globally and also own Cafe de Paris in London.

Cream Ibiza

Once a week during the Ibiza clubbing season Cream hosts a club night at Amnesia.
