FIB

If you’re in Madrid over the summer and looking for a weekend away and well-deserved break from your Spanish studies at Inhispania, I have an idea for you. Fib (Benicásim festival) is taking place this year from the 18th-21st July in Benicásim in Valencia. I can’t sell it as an ideal way to practice your Spanish (owing to the English-speaking crowd that flock there every year) but I can promise it will be a lot of fun!

The line-up this year is a corker, with The Killers, Arctic Monkeys and Queens of the Stone Ages featuring amongst the headliners. Big acts such as Dizzee Rascal and the Kaiser Chiefs will also be there, along with many more acts which will be announced nearer the time.

Tickets cost €163 and include 7 nights of camping, so you can make a proper trip of it. The best thing about this festival is that it’s right on the beach, so you can relax by the sea during the day and then use up all your energy crowd-surfing to your favourite songs until the early hours of the morning.

What are you waiting for?
N.B. If you do decide to go and need to take time off your classes, make sure you speak to the reception team well in advance, ideally before booking your tickets!
