Local Information

Benicassim first became a tourist destination over a hundred years ago. Its fine sand, gently sloping beaches, clean waters and numerous facilities continue to shape a resort chosen by thousands of people. The Benicasim district has much more besides. With the backdrop of the "Desert de les Palmes" natural park, there are an endless number of places worth visiting. Culture and leisure, activity and rest are simultaneous possibilities.

Where to Stay

Benicassim is a holiday town with plenty of hotels and apartments. Unfortunately most of these are booked up a long time in advance.

Valencia capital, located about one hour south of Benicassim, offers another option, with numerous hotels catering for all needs at competitive prices.

If you prefer to enjoy the festival as a 'real' festival go'er, the Festival has 3 camp sites of their own which you also pay for in the ticket price. For those eager enough, you can turn and up and start camping up to a week before the festival starts and spend some time in Benicassim its self acclimitising to the surroundings.

Ticket Information:

You can buy tickets for the whole 4 days (160 Euros if you buy in advance, expect to pay more from the box office).

Alternatively, 3 day tickets are 145 Euros (advance).

If you just want to go on a single day then you may see prices being published soon (you could buy individual day tickets last year and the price depended on who was headlining the day).
