This is my third time at Beni, but the first time we have flown into Castellon airport, what's the best way to get to the campsite from there as struggling to find anything remotely reasonable?!

HappyWednesday Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 I see the Daft Punk rumours of touring again have re-surfaced. Wonder what the chances are of them at Beni? Positives are their collaboration with the Weeknd and the fact that most other European festivals have named all their headliners now. Negative is that they would cost a fortune. Reckon it's a possibility though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannylrq Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 In need of help if possible! We're on the verge of booking a hotel and ticket in Castellon - are there suitable shuttles/taxis available or are we likely to be left stranded at the festival site afterwards? Also - what about Orpesa Del Mar (Marina d'Or) - are there any forms of shuttles which run there after the festival has finished for the night? Any help hugely appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help hugely appreciated Dont know about Castellon but stayed at Oropesa del Mar (Marina d'or is a good 2-3km further up the coast) We got the last train to Benicasim every evening at about 7.30pm which was great as quick and cheap but and it is a big but, we opted for taxis at the end of the night at about 3am and the queues were ridiculous 2-3 hours ... I did hear that you can get a shuttle bus from Oropesa that picks up at different hotels along the way so i would defo suggest doing that . Marina d'or also does the shuttle bus. Sorry that can't be more helpful but sure others will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamishrankin Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 I was under the impression that Tame Impala are on an indefinite hiatus? In terms of Daft Punk they are a seldom joy live and when the do play live it's usually only massive shows, i.e Glastonbury. Unfortunately I personally don't think Benicassim makes that list.

Any help hugely appreciated The official shuttles run a limited fixed timetable from Castellon to the festival early evening, and then back to a Castellon during the night. Every hour or two, I think. Had friends who stayed in Castellon 2 years ago and did this, however last year they opted to pay more for their hotels and stayed in Beni.

Thanks Get a cab is your best option. Cost us approx €55-€60 each way last year, and takes about 30-35 minutes to Benicassim. As others have said, there's nothing at the airport, and is in the middle of nowhere. It's as close to Beni, as it is to Castellon town.

The Strokes Catfish and the Bottlemen Chase and Status The Courteeners thanks I'm really hoping for The Strokes, they're doing three Lollapaloozas in South America in March but haven't announced any European dates yet. Catfish were there last year so I'm assuming no chance(?), from what other people are saying Courteeners are highly likely. Chase & Status haven't been there since '14 so I suppose they could be in with a shout too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely with Bilbao, Mad Cool and primavera having announced a lot more acts than Beni the bigger acts that aren't on their line ups have a good shout at being at Beni?

Cobbs Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 I see Kasabian are playing a few gigs in Italy starting the 19th of July, new album will be out shortly too. Benicassim before Italy perhaps ?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
