Benicassim 2024 lineup

The Benicassim 2024 lineup brought the festival back for three hot nights on the Costa del Azahar from 18–20 July 2024. Black Eyed Peas, The Libertines, Royal Blood and Yungblud topped a bill that mixed UK guitar bands, pop headliners and a deep Spanish indie and dance undercard, with late sets from acts like Jess Glynne, Milky Chance, The Vaccines and Miles Kane.

Reviews were a bit split: some long-time fans missed the old four-day, mega-headliner era and pointed out technical and organisational issues. Others still rated it as a great value long weekend of sun, beach and big sing-alongs, especially once the late-night sets and smaller stages kicked into gear.

Friday 19 July 2024 – Yungblud, Milky Chance & The Vaccines

Friday leaned into indie, alt-pop and high-energy punk-pop. Yungblud’s set had some technical hiccups but still produced one of the weekend’s biggest pits, while Milky Chance and The Vaccines delivered crowd-pleasing, guitar-driven sets. On the Repsol stage, Sam Ryder showed off huge vocals, and the late-night schedule was dominated by Spanish names and DJ-driven parties.

Saturday was the heaviest night in terms of guitars. Royal Blood headlined with a loud, riff-heavy set, while Miles Kane brought his Brit-rock swagger earlier in the evening.
