Brilliant, thanks!

You should probably get a bus there and taxi back whenever you feel like it because chances are you will end up paying for the bus and getting a taxi home anyway.

We paid about 10 to 12 each for 3 of us last year......the way back each night different story......expected though when your stumbling out of place. Just try not to get completely ripped off if your too drunk

This! Cost is 10-12 euro from where we were staying and one taxi tried to charge us €36 back. He got 12 off us and told to *******. Must have been a lot of that going on

The OP said 10-12 EACH though implying that he paid 30-36 on the way out!

Did feel too high for such a short journey...

We stayed in La Cala but were definitely tried to be conned by driver. I've googled it and I don't  think it should be any more than 25 euro at night. Your probably better off getting the bus there and taxi back

Friend is selling a reduced ticket if anyone is looking.

My friends are looking for the tickets, what is reduced price? Do you think it can get cheaper on last minute days on ticketswap?

Yes, there's a good chance. Got a full festival ticket for EUR 65 last year a day before the festival

It was limited to 200 tickets. I'm guessing the 200 didn't sell or they forgot to turn the offer off. It's an absolute steal of a price.

I suspect the 'limited to 200 tickets' was marketing spin to create urgency but that they are happy to use it to shift as many tickets as possible.

Florence has cancelled two festivals this weekend due to medical reasons… fingers crossed for a speedy recovery!!

Let's be honest, they have no one that day who can reasonably replace her so the organisers must be panicing a bit!

That's what I thought. They would have to get someone over from Kalorama probably because no-one else is a headline act for that Saturday.

Prodigy have also cancelled a few festivals due to a back injury to Maxim. Can't see it being them.

Blur were a late addition for Kalorama (just saying...)

Yeah so they wouldn't step in for Florence. The good news for Kalorama though is that their day is FULL! So they could cope if they were to pull out. 

[Drums Please Fab]

Blur instead of Florence........yes please.

We are staying in La Cala and were thinking about walking to Festival. But is there free shuttle bus to festival from La Cala since it seems there are only buses from camping and parking areas?

[EthanBurgerHead]

Anybody who has been before have any recommendations for bars/ restaurants/ things to do in the town. 10 days…

[xxialac]

Yes, any recommended places in Fuengirola and Cala de Mijas welcome!

[Florence2010]

Florence has cancelled another 2 festivals… not looking good.

She's been replaced as headliner by Cypress Hill (hmm) and Faber (who?) at those two.
