BENICASSIM
Benicassim, Spain
8-10 August
Blur, Travis, Suede and The Coral were among the bands playing by the Mediterranean at Spain's Benicassim festival.
There are also short films, an "alternative fashion" show, theatre and dance events too. It even offers courses for aspiring musicians.
Around 40,000 people make the pilgrimage to the festival each year, hoping for great music, a relaxed atmosphere and beautiful weather.
Plan ahead if you are planning a long journey there – the few coaches and trains to and from Barcelona get booked up very quickly.
