kayleighbolitho Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 I am considering going to Benicassim this year but wanted to know from people who have been in the past why I should go to Benicassim instead of another European festival??? Any info or past experiences would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarge009 Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 My favourite festival. Great atmosphere, full of English but without all the things you hate about English festivals (rain, massive queues at the bars, concentration camp toilets, camping c**ts). Brilliant line-up every year to boot, too. Highly recommend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 You might want to make your decision based largely on whether you regard "full of English" as being a good thing or a bad thing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilduck Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 It's fairly expensive as European festivals go though. You could probably get a better lineup for your money at one of the less popular festivals. I think most people see Beni as a nice beach holiday with some bands thrown in.

wolf777 Posted February 7, 2012 Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 Dont think Florence and the Machine are headlining Beni. So far its Stone Roses and Noel Gallagher according to fib but we will see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulWorth Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 FIB only getting started around midnight when others are winding down is reason enough. Was at Rock en Seine last year and FIB the previous two years and all were good but was slightly disappointing at Rock en Seine for the music to be ending at midnight when FIB would have another 6 or 7 hours to go!

festivalmad1 Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Great atmosphere. You get more out of a festival abroad than you do in the UK. warmer weather, more value for your money because its a longer festival, more of a holiday than just a festival, great lineup each year and Beni as a place is lovely!!
