Benicassim

When: July 17-20

Where: Benicassim, Castellon, Spain

What: Set smack-bang in the middle of Valencia in Spain, Benicassim is right on the beach.

As well enjoying the eclectic musical line-up, of course. Even better, the tickets include nine days access to the campsite.

Tickets: €170 (£135) for a four-day weekend camping ticket. This gives you access to the campsite for nine days from July 14 - 22.
