Benicassim

[festival*girl]

The council have lightened up a bit this year in Benicassim. Bars were only open till 1.30 before but its changed to 3.30. Hopefully they extended clubbing hours although the wednesday before the festival start theres supposed to be something huge going down in Oropesa looking at other forums.

[Michael Go]

tell us more about what's happenin in Oropesa please?

[jennytot]

Supposed to be a party capable of holding 2000-3000 people in the bullring with bars, music, food all night long.

hey folks.

just doing some musing (not the alt-prog-rock variety).

right, anyway, fib have told us who is playing at the fib party in madrid on saturday, so i presume?!? that rules them out of beni on the saturday. ie, giving us a bit more of a clue of the lineup for thurs/fri/sunday.

what im also thinking is summercase is the fri/saturday in madrid/barcelona, but does that mean we cant rule out some of the bands playing beni on thurs/sunday? realise it would mean they wouldnt pull the day ticketers to beni who are already going to summercase, but could it happen? i know in previous years we havent seen much overlap, but then they havent been taking place at the same time?

anyway, it might prove a conversation starter if nothing else...

[MMAlien]

Any rumors to other bands who might be playing this year? i cant wait!

Coldplay's new album is out on june 16th, i imagine they will be touring straight after. Just a Thought.

oh and their new album is called "Viva la Vida" .Spanish Titled album promoted at a spanish festival????

[edisonic]

Though im probably just clutching at straws.

Hi guys, me and my mates have just bought our festival tickets but before we book flights can anyone tell me how late at night you can get in to the campsites? Cheapest flights get us in to Barca at 20:30 so wouldnt get to Beni til about midnight... will we still be able to get into the campsites that late? Thanks!

[sillymilly]

brill thanks, sorry if i'm being slow, but does that mean transport from the Beni train station to the different campsites runs all through the night too?

Hi,

I'm a fib first timer! Does anyone know if they have electric points for shavers etc.. in all 3 campsites? I know they definitely have them in Bonet but not sure about the other 2?

[TSM1973]

No, buses don´t run all night. Usually nearer the time there will be a timetable on the FIB website.

As for electric points...yea, i can only assume they are on every campsite...would be a bit stupid if not, right?

[biki]

Well thatt what I thought but I read somwhere that only Bonet has electric points for shavers and stuff and the other 2 have electric charge points for mobile phone chargers only.

[festival*girl]

well in bonet it's proper brick built toilet/shower blocks that have power points for shavers etc. I've walked through camp fib and they're open air shower things so i'm not sure if they would have shaver points!

mind you i'm saying that without ever camping there!

[TSM1973]

[stubbs]

Camp fib has loads of sockets in the beer tent in the corner, mainly only used for phone charging really.

[pattard]

Yea, well just takes away all the fun of pointing and laughing at the tons of girls with hair dryers, hair straighners, hair tongs and all sorts of other electrical devices...

[TSM1973]

Haha and not to mention all the guys there that will have those things, it's even funnier taking the piss out of guys because of straightened hair than it is of girls

[Ria24]

Hello! We are planning on getting to beni late afternoon on the Tuesday. What are the chances of getting into Bonet campsite then?
