Benicàssim 2014

[Mokes]

You are going to benicassim, i hardly recommend you to sleep and get rest. In 14 years i haven't been in the aqua park or the go karting.

Come on, go and get high, aqua park!!!, you can find 100 in Spain, benicassim festival perhaps once in your life.

.p.s. it will be cheap, you are english you pay 10 BP for a box of cigarretes!

You hardly recommend me to sleep and get rest? I'm not interested in go karting really but the Aqua park or whatever it is could be a nice change up from the beach. While I'm sure the beach will be lovely I can see it being more like a beach in Thailand (waveless, a bit dirty, covered in sunburnt tourists and littered with thieves and gronks trying to flog you shit) than the pristine pictures you see in holiday brochures. I have been to water parks before and they can be pretty hit and miss so was just looking for some advice on what this particular one is like. Spending the daylight hours of 1 in 7 days really doesn't seem like it will impede on how high I will be getting or anything else. I just want to sit in a rubber ring and drift around the lazy lake, assuming they have one. To me festivals are more about taking it easy and enjoying the week rather than just getting fucked up for the whole thing. I will be plenty fucked up during the Libs.

I just don't want to pay 30 euros each for me and the girlfriend to go to a park if it's shit.

ps I'm not English and I don't smoke (cigarettes)

I went to the waterpark last year and it was really good. If you go after 3pm its much cheaper but obviously you get less time there. Can't remember how much it cost but was worth it. Rides are good and there are lots of sunbeds in actual shade so if you really do need a sleep then the fee to get in would be worth it haha.

Ta dude.

Anyone know if there are any irish pubs in benicassim or marina d'or that show the gaa matches live?

Of course, benicassim beach is not the best part of the festival, also those beaches are not also really good if you compare with others, not so far away as Thailand.

For me a festival is going to concerts and sleep, and i promise, i don't have time for both things.

p.s.Joints are cheaper in spain than cigarets in England, so you are lucky!

i know benicassim, i know marina d´or, i don't know any irish pub in there.

perhaps, you have any, but i don't know it. i don't think so.

Yes there's one in marina d'or!!! Can't remember rightly where it is but there is definitely one and it's really good.

FIBs website is so hard to understand. I want to buy transfers between FIB and Castellon. Do I need the shuttle bus which is valid between 17th and 20th or the bus pass which is valid between the 14th and the 20th? Nowhere does it say at which hotels the pick up and drop of is and there is timetable as to when the buses run.

FIB is a shambles and its hard to believe anyone will be rebooking it for next year.

I think it's the shuttle you need. I bought mine from danesp, I used it last time and it was really good but that was from marina d'or.

Not rightly sure what the cheaper 'bus' one is

[Power001]

Does anyone know if FIB are going to provide tarpaulin covers over the camp site this year or are we going to roast like last year?

Bring your own. Avoid the massive sweaty tarp covered areas....Get an open bit with a bit of wind and string it up over tents or trees

[JackSssmith]

Poundland selling Emergency Blankets - hoping to cover the tent in it so it reflects the heat away from the tent. I was roasting last year

[domduv87]

URGENT!

I went last year, organised everything myself for me and 2 others but this year i've let someone else organise it. Turns out today he informs me he FORGOT to book the EUFEST transfers from Alicante to Benicassim (sold out on that day). Does anyone know any other way? we will be landing in Alicante on Wednesday 16th at about 11am. Many thanks, any links etc would be appreciated

They are both good shouts. If all else fails look at renting a car maybe? I looked and it's loads cheaper than getting the transfers but I don't have a credit card and couldn't get one in time.

No, East Midlands via Milan.... Very long story, involving saving a lot of money!

[bowlerhatbear]

Anyone fancy a game of footie on the beach on Wednesday?

[sufc]

Game of footy could be good

[NipzBGD]

Currently sunning myself by the pool in Alicante. Benidorm for 3 days of getting into the party zone in the morning. Then if you see a 40 year old northern lad stumbling about with either a Madness, libs, Toots, Hacienda or similar t-shirt on feel free to say hi. That'll be me! Enjoy peeps!
