So who's going to come along this time ? I go to Turkey tomorrow but as soon as I get back I'll be sorting my flight and ticket for next year, get it out the way ASAP and get it dirt cheap.

[richardashcroft]

These the guys that only sell the official tickets? - just wanted to make sure!

As for flights, which airport do you use for arrival? (Valencia does seems the most obvious choice).

Hello, this is my first post. Just got my tickets and flight to Valencia on the Monday 9th from Manchester. Cost less than £200 which is roughly what 2 day tickets for V cost. If its half as good as 2011 it will be a steal.

Never been before but bought my tickets yesterday and am excited about it already!!!  :-)
Just checking though, I got my tickets online from HMV........I'm guessing (hoping!!) they're ok aren't they and are official ticket sellers?

Yeah they're totally fine, I got mines from there this year because it seemed to be the cheapest -booking fee wise.

What do people think is the best thing to do in terms of accommodation? I went in 2010 and stayed in a hotel in Orpesa (I think) but that wasn't very convenient because you had to get there and back and then up before 10.30 for breakfast that we'd already paid for. Don't think I could handle camping in the Spanish heat though! Does anybody know of apartments/villas in the town of Benicassim - within walking distance of both the beach and festival?

You will find that any apartment accommodation in Benicassim is expensive, as area is not a package holiday - you will have to pay for a two weeks rental Sat to Sat . You will find a better deal in the surrounding towns, eg Oropesa, Castellon el Grau, visit ######  or any spanish site as listed in the fiberfib.com website

When do tickets for Beni usually sell out? I've never been before but I'm hoping to go next year and book tickets around Christmas time which I assume will be fine but you never know!

seriously considering this as there is no glasto next year. went a few years ago a few times and had a fantastic time. can i ask you who you are flying with ? we would also be going from manchester,hopefully that is, but not getting anywhere at the mo  with flights.

cheers.

Hi everyone, anyone got any tips about travel from London next year? Easyjet seem to be the cheapest to Valencia, but booking for July doesn't seem to have opened yet. And then I guess it's a shuttle bus? Or a train?

Anyway, all looks encouraging

I think summer flights are released on boxing day but i could be wrong

[lac999]

G'day all, our group shall certainly be making a trip to Beni this year, as Glastonbury is having a year out.
Does anyone know when Ryan Air tickets will be available, as they seem to be the best bet for Bristol to Valenica?

Hmm thanks, yeah I did a bit of research into it and I've heard many differing dates... The consensus seems to be early October, but I think the date can differ and they don't annonce it more than a couple of days in advance, so we'll just have to keep checking.

@lac999 I presume Ryanair will be similar.

Hi Guys!  Returning to FIB for the second time and some of our group for the third!  This time the rule is NO CAMPING!! Ha.  Its just far too hot and waking up hungover in the heat is too much.  So this time its apartment time and here is where I need help!  Does anyone know anywhere good to stay for about 10 people (50/50 Male/Female split) for 7 days during the festival thats about half way from the beach to the festival site?

Thanks in advance!!
Nick

[MichaelDoyle]

Sadly, Beni is now my back up option if Lollapalooza falls through, just thought about it more and don't fancy that heat again!

[thetime]

Looking into next year.

Has anyone used eufest for travel from the airports?

And are they reliable? Cost etc.
