Nicole Sheehy Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Hi! Im not sure if you guys can help on this, theres a group of 7 of us going to Benicassim festival next summer and we are planning on staying in Apartamentos Vaccines Azahar. When you go to book it says we need 2 apartments because its a 6 person limit per apartment. As theres only 7 of us, to try and keep costs down we want to just book the one apartment. Before we book does anyone know if that might be possible? Our plan was to buy a single camping ticket for the 7th person but they would stay in our apartment. Its our first year going so we’re not sure if the tickets are connected with your accommodation some how and that one person might get shafted… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a central reception for all the apartments about a 5 min walk away so they'll never actually see how many there are. Only problem is that the apartments are quite tight with 6 folk, so 7 wouldn't be very comfortable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eFestivals Posted October 4, 2017 Report Share Posted October 4, 2017 I wonder what effect the shite going down in Catalonia might have on FiB and other festivals in Catalonia. It's not beyond impossible that they'll be no flights in or out, and an economic blockade on the Catalonia borders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benicassim is placed in Comunidad Valenciana (Comunidad Autónoma whose provinces are Alicante, Valencia and Castellón) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alright do they follow a certain format like 1 pop act 2 rock bands and an indie/alternative option for headliners or just whoever is relevant?

No, there's never usually any format/logic to any announcements, just whoever is confirmed/signed-up. Often it's to coincide with the artist making another EU festival announcements.
