Disappointing like every other beni announcement for this year

[thatnathansmith]

Did they actually add anyone of note with that announcement? Looks like they just filled up the lower down slots with local acts.

Nobody

Awesome Friday. Crappy every other day. But to be fair it's not about the bands, just buzzing to get ****ed up in the sun ?

[fitz_xoxo]

meh

w*nk 

[andytommo]

Is this definitely the completed line up?  Still seems a gap on the main stage for Sat night, and on the SB stage for Fri night?  Still great value for money for €99, with at least 20+ acts I'm looking forward to seeing.

MORE ACTS AND DJS JOIN THE PARTY.

We’re thrilled that amongst the new confirmed acts are Spain’s answer to Drake, C. TANGANA, Vancouver’s BOB MOSES, Brighton’s guitar wielding OUR GIRL, afrofuturists OSHUN, and Norwegian electro popper ANNA OF THE NORTH to name just a few.

The official Tweet reads "Full Bill for #FIB2018" so I'd assume so

I love FIB as much as anyone but even I’m struggling to big this year up. It’s so fucking poor. Looks like the cash has well and truly dried up.

I see renfe have trains for 1st July now available so surely can expect the 1s for around festival time to become available soon 

I travel around Europe alot and this the slowest I've ever seen for trains to become available they don' seem to stick with their own 62 day rule 

[Jonesy1]

Trainline.com is showing times and letting you buy tickets as far as I can see.

 

Infact, ignore that. It's saying 4 hours for the 1 way journey and only giving 2 times.

We were planning on getting the coach from Barca airport to the festival but is it better (i.e. cheaper/easier) to get the train? Bare in mind we're flying into Barcelona airport if that makes any difference at all to the times/prices (i.e. is the station at the airport or do you have to go into the city?). Cheers!

The train leaves from Barcelona Sants so have to make your way from the airport to their before catching the train to benicassim 

My flight lands late evening in Barcelona and the last train is already gone so have to get the bus down but plan to get train back on the Monday and enjoy day in Barcelona before flying home Tuesday 

[KH94]

Im stopping in the Campervan area, does anyone know how long of a walk it is to the beach? Cheeeers.

Is the train cheaper? Cos it's about £90 for the coach (£45 each way), don't know how that compares to the train

[0114]

Anybody else counting down the days? Not that fussed about the line up just can’t wait to be out there again ?

Looking at the prices for trains currently available (Up until 1st july) they start from under  €20 one way so I would say the train is cheaper. Last train from Barcelona to benicassim is 7:30pm 

[bason85]

Anyone have an idea of the cost of a taxi from Valencia Airport? Due to the time of my flight I wont be able to get a coach so maybe the only option....
