Benicassim

Bob Dylan, The Stone Roses, New Order, Florence And The Machine, At The Drive-In, Dizzeee Rascal, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, De La Soul, Crystal Castles, Katy B. Benicassim has long been an international favourite, thanks to the site's close proximity to the beach and the option of lots of free camping either side of the actual festival. It's a grand idea to book time off around these dates and have yourself a good old Spanish holiday – plus there's always a great beach party to finish off your hedonistic long weekend. Heading up the bill this year is the now croaky, formerly vital Mr Dylan, aged Manchester jangle-heroes TSR and foghorn-in-a-dress Florence. While the big names might appear a bit elderly, there's plenty of younger and spunky acts making up the bulk of the line-up, such as Little Dragon, The Vaccines and The Horrors to enjoy. Pack your sunscreen and stamina too: there's a stellar list of DJs spinning 'til dawn.
