Events

Benicassim Festival

The International Benicàssim Festival can be described as a cross between a summer holiday with friends and a music festival. It has been extremely popular since its conception in 1995 not only due to a great line up, but also due to the lovely hot climate, lack of rain and the nearby beaches to laze around on during the day. In addition to the main stage there is a 10,000 capacity dance tent complete with cooling water misters and fans to keep everyone cool. Benicàssim itself is a small beach town on the Costa Azahar, a few kilometers away from Marina Dor.
Besides the music, the Festival provides space for other disciplines such as dance, fashion, contemporary art, theatre and short films, and is the only music festival in the world that offers, among its many activities, summer courses which offer official course credit to university students. The festival really is about being part of a completely unique experience – a holiday extraordinaire by the sea, with a very cool summer vibe and a true cultural event all in one.
