Benicassim line-up nearly complete

The line-up for Benicassim 2010 still had acts to be added, but with acts like Kasabian, The Prodigy, The Courteeners, The Cribs and Yuksek ready to light up this year’s festival it’s already looking extremely promising. Tickets are still available on our ticket page. This year’s festival will sell out so make sure you book quickly to avoid disappointment!

Benicassim line-up

If you’ve got any ideas for who you’d like to see playing at this years festival then why not tell us. As if all of the above wasn’t enough then just take a look at the weather in Benicassim at the moment (Fri 2nd April 2010) the temperatures really do hit boiling point by July with average temperatures of 28C!

  17. kareem says:

    Woo can’t wait….Kings should sign up since last year was really unfortunate.
    Yeah Yeah Yeahs
    Biffy
    Florence and the machine
    Crystal Castles….please please please
    and if Killers wanna make another appearence it would be amazing!!!

  19. Sam E says:

    The lineup this year is very good and infinitely better than last year!
    Admittedly if KOL had played last year it would have been better but they were called off last minute!
    Temper Trap/Vampire weekend/Mumford + Sons/Ellie Goulding/Prodigy/Kasabian/Julian Casablancas will be amazing!
    If one of these bands play it will make my summer:
    Metric
    We are Scientists
    Yeah Yeah Yeahs
    KIngs Of Leon

  20. kareem says:

    I’m not moaning about the line up i love it…its just not poppy enough for the under 18s! thats where reading went wrong last year…

  21. Sam says:

    Probabley got all of our headliners. Leftfield headling a day at Rockness, Prodigy and Kasabian are big enough, yet Vampire Weekend, as much as I like them, I don’t think are headline material. Gnarls Barkley headlined a day in 2008!

    Love to see

    ARCADE FIRE
    MUSE
    EDITORS
    THE HIVES

    And for all the Florence fans, I’m really gutted to say I’m sure she’s booked up for already for all the days of the Benicassim festival!

  22. Friesh says:

    I can’t believe that people are whining about the line-up! I absolutely want to see each and everyone of The Prodigy, Kasabian and most of all THE CRIBS!! The Courteeners and for something a little bit different DJ Shadow. Benicassim people consider my tickets booked, not sure what the rest of this whining mob are on about x

  23. Jonny Nytra says:

    According the the official site, theres still 67 bands to be announced.
    Suck on that ‘lineup almost complete’!!

  24. bean says:

    “there will be two more headliners added and a few more small good bands but you will just have to wait and see”……You sound very confident!?!

  25. kareem says:

    if you look back at all the line ups there has ever been only a few amazing bands on the line up. the festival is not like reading or t in the park its european it has to apply to the whole of europe not just england if you have been there before there is loads of french people, russians, germans, spanish obviously and a few australians. festivals don’t apply to everyone but for me this year im pretty pleased with this line up! there will be two more headliners added and a few more small good bands but you will just have to wait and see :)

  26. Glyn says:

    There has GOT to be more headliners announced. It’s shockingly bad at the moment, compared to Reading/Leeds the beni line-up is pants. In fact compared to most festivals the beni line-up is pants. To be fair Julian Casablancas’ solo album is epic but for beni you’d expect the Strokes too! It’s all being run by a new guy this year and so far he’s not impressed me! :(

  27. kareem says:

    tbh i dont think the line up is that bad its better then last year….only the headliners were owrth a watch tv on the radio and babyshambles were the highlight of my festival this year they’ve got some new dance/dubstep/IDM/glitch talent what im excited about so its a win for me

  28. Jonny Nytra says:

    agreed

  29. Skyla says:

    FRIENDLY FIRES
    FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE
    YEASAYER
    TINIE TEMPAH
    KINGS OF LEON
    MARINA AND THE DIAMONDS

    all of the above would be great

  30. EmilyAust says:

    The stuff about the lineup is all good but…
    “the temperatures really do hit boiling point by July with average temperatures of 28C!”
    really?
    I’d call that mild springtime weather to be honest.

  31. emmett says:

    just give us a few bands that will do the festival justice, its possibly the worst line up out of all the festivals this summer, for a festival which is ment to be the best in europe, kasabian, dizzie rascal, pil, the specails, please wise it up, it is awful, theyr bands you would expect to see at t4 on the beach

  32. Matthew says:

    Calvin Harris
    Paramore
    City and Colour
    Lost Prophets
    Chase and status
    Sub Focus
    Erik Hassle
    Jay-Z
    Muse

    I Love Benicassim

  35. Jonny Nytra says:

    Yeah. No way can this be almost completed, beniorg, you’re talking crapus!

  36. eva says:

    chase and status would be amazing!

  37. kareem says:

    is it really nearly completed? there is suppose to be 100 bands and there is only under half of that? when is the next announcement?

  38. Jonny Nytra says:

    that does kinda suck

    ^and blink cant play, they’re playing exclusively at reading

  39. tin145 says:

    yeah, agree with Suzanne, there should really be two more headliners alongside Prod and Kasabian.
    Would really love to see any of the following making an appearance:
    Pendulum
    Biffy Clyro
    Blink-182
    Chase & Status
    The Crystal Method
    Deadmau5
    Enter Shikari
    Fatboy Slim
    Kings of Leon
    Limp Bizkit
    Linkin Park
    Moby
    Muse
    Queens of the Stone Age
    Rage Against the Machine
    Rise Against
    Sub Focus
    Them Crooked Vultures
    and of course, Wheatus since they’re on their 10th anniversary tour

    getting a bit late now but if any of those get added it would just be crazy!

  40. Suzanne says:

    Nearly complete? It’s an awesome lineup but still think we need two more headliners and at least another 30 bands/DJ’s?? Oh and please can you book PLACEBO if you havent already!!!!!???
