Benicassim 2012

[thetime]

I will warn you that taxis are rare in Benicassim! This year there were shuttle buses to local towns but the festival organisers probably won't be posting any details about this year until much closer to the festival. Oropesa del Mar is easier and closer.

We are currenlty sorting out accommodation for Beni and we will announce on facebook when it's ready for you to book, so if you 'like' us then we'll keep you updated It will probably be early next year, which is the same for a lot of hotels in Beni.

Heading back to Beni next year for round two. This year there was a group of 5 of us, staying in Marina D'or. It was a nice place but the distance from there to the festival was definitely a huge problem. Those taxi queues really were the worst of the worst (especially if you're in a bit of a bad way!).

I've heard that Bonterra Park is a perfect place to stay for the week, only there aren't any prices up yet.

Could anyone give me any rough advice on prices for these? Either that or any recommended places to stay nearer the festival site?

Hi, if you contact Bonterra Park they will give you next years prices, they are taking allready reservations (you must hurry - by xmas they are fully booked) - if in the other hand you have stay again at Marina Dor, make shure you book a shuttle bus - taxi´s!! there is only 9 offical ones - but dozens of cowboys/pirate available

Hello, this is my first post. Just got my tickets and flight to Valencia on the Monday 9th from Manchester. Cost less than £200 which is roughly what 2 day tickets for V cost. If its half as good as 2011 it will be a steal.

Also could anyone give me an idea of what the social scene is like in Benicassim outside of the festival in terms of clubs and bars etc.? Is there enough variety to last 4 or 5 days?

[Ross!]

One more thing, any ideas of how long early bird's are on sale for? Cheers in advance

Hey, hope someone can help! I'm trying to find more info on Villacamp but there doesn't seem to be much on the official websites apart from stating there are better toilet and shower facilities...

Can anyone point me in the direction of any reviews etc to help me decide if it is worth the extra cost? Also, when do Villacamp tickets usually go on sale?

Cheers

Has anyone used Orca Services before in the past? Was thinking of using them to book a few things for the festival in 2012 but wanted to see if anyone has any past experiences with them first?

Thanks in advance :-)

Been Beni 06, 08, 09, 10 and 11 so was going to give it a miss this year but might have to re-think that now after the stone roses announcement. Don't know If I can spend another week in that Irish bar listening to the same 5 songs over and over again! (Hot Chip pun intended!)

[snoopz]

Can anyone tell me when the hotels generally release rooms in Beni? I think the last time we booked it was around Jan. Is it still the same?

[rug568]
