What is Benicassim Festival like?
Benicassim is situated between Barcelona and Valencia. The Festival runs for 8 days ( well the camp site opens 3 days before the event starts) and plays host to over 100 bands, and ends with a massive free beach party. The sleep town of Benicassim has welcomed some of the world greatest artists including last year the Pixies, The Strokes, Franz Ferdinand and Depeche Mode and Morrissey.  The appeal to UK festival goers is the guaranteed sunshine although they may be praying to be in the more mild climate of Mr Eavis, cow field while they melt in the Spanish sun!!  That said you can always find a quiet shady spot for a siesta or cool down in the Mediterranean sea.  The music does not actually start till late afternoon tand goes on through the night till around 8am in the morning, the headliners go on stage around 2am.Â
