Benicassim essentials!

[tentywenty]

What are the showers like at the camp sites? Also does anyone know if i could still book into Bonterra park?

[st00ka]

One set of clothes per day. Thats crazy talk

I'll be hoping to do a bit of moonlighting down at the beach with a scrubber and a box of Daz.

I hear salt waters good for the whites!

The showers are very very cold, which hurts in a morning, but it's great mid afternoon.

How easy is it to pick up a tent at Benicassim peeps? Can you pick up a nice pop-up tent at a supermarket or nearby stall?

[sprostongreen]

A wee bump for any newbies. no point in starting another thread

here's a new map as well. the red line is the quickest walking route from campbeni to the festival. there's also a supermarket up the top end(right) of town on the main street for all the campbeni campers.

Nice map - thats a great help for a first time visitor.

We are likely to be turning up on the Friday night pretty lateish maybe 2am, anyone got any idea if we will be able to get our wristbands at this time of night ????

Thanks

I don´t think you will be in luck: if I remember rightly, the wristband stands are open from 9AM to 9PM, or similar.

[HippyDave]

are wristbands used to gain entry to the arena or to campsites? as i think were gettin there around 10pm on the monday. also will Benni camp be overly crowded to get a decent spot (4 tents worth) by that sort of time?

This is a very simple question but since we stayed in an apartment last year i dont know the answer..... to get access to the campsites do you need your armband? and you can only get the armband at the entrance to the festival is that right?

Does anyone know whats the best website to buy train or bus tickets for travel from Valencia to Beni? Were going on the Sunday so we can't take that special beni bus thing thats about £16.

Cheers for the help!

the best piece of advice i can give would be to take suncream and use it alot. last year me an a group of about 15 went to beni, an we all(no exceptions) got burnt..

but apart from tht its an awesome festival

erm quick querry guys. just been looking through info stuff and it claims you have to be 18? i am 17 but with 5 18 year olds, will it matter too much or do they check passports etc? iff so could i not just find a nice old man pretending to be father?

It wont matter at all youll be fine. It says here that people aged 16-17 do not need to be accompanied by an adult but cannot purchase alcohol or tobacco.

Im pretty sure you can bring a note from your legal guardians signing responsibility over to one of your 18 year old friends if you are unsure. Like i said it wont matter though.

Beni essentials....shades (not for the sun but to hide those massive pupils and slitty red eyes) and the biggest recommendation ever....a change of shorts for walking back from the beach. The arse chaffage without doing that on the first day was a killer!
