Benicassim Music Festival

Tuesday May 13, 2008
Music festival season is upon us, and in my humble opinion, it just doesn't get any better than Spanish festival Benicassim. Benicassim loosely translates into "best music festival ever." Ok, that's not true. The festival is actually named for the small Spanish town that hosts the event, which is situated between Barcelona and Valencia (Spanish readers may know the festival as FIB). It's an absolutely beautiful setting for an outdoor festival, the mood is laid back and inviting, and the music is fantastic. Plus, if you ever get a chance to get a backstage pass to the a festival, this is the one you want - there's a swimming pool, go-carts and lots more. I'm not really an "ooooh, it's magical" kind of girl, but just between us, Benicassim is a little bit magical. I won't get to make it this year, but if you can swing it - go. Really, you must.
But enough about me. What's your fav music festival? Which ones will you attend this year? Let me know!
