"Damn googled it said British weekend starts the 17th looks like I'll have to change dates"
Theres no such thing as British weekend, its the Thursday as mentioned thats British. In truth the town empties very quickly through the weekend. We stayed til the Monday once and the sunday night was a ghost town |

This from Travel Empire.
"Benidorm Holidays are normally quite lively, but the most fun time time to visit has got to be during the annual Benidorm Fiesta held each November! This massive festival attracts a huge following from across the UK with many visitors returning year after year. This amazing celebration honours the Patron Saints of Benidorm; La Virgen del Sufrage and Jaime Apostol and lasts for 6 pulsating days. In 2022 the party starts on Friday the 11th November and lasts until Wednesday the 16th November, over the years this has been extended by an additional day, although not officially part of the fiesta, British holiday makers have extended the fun by the introduction of a mega fancy dress party, this extra day is now become a traditional part of the fun and will be held on Thursday the 17th November 2022".
That pretty much sums it up.
Although we love the fancy dress Thursday the big parade followed by the mega firework display on the Wednesday evening (16th this year) is always a highlight for us. |

Yes. On the Friday and Saturday the background noise is the clatter of suitcase wheels on the pavement. |

"We have stayed there loads never had any issues it’s the fiesta will be out all day anyway only for sleeping in plus it’s to expensive to change hotel now "
Considering many shocking reviews invlove breaking into rooms and stealing everything am not sure that helps you to be honest |

"The OP blatantly meant British Fancy Dress day was the Fiesta. Sad so many pedatic saddos jumped on his wording to correct and belittle him  "
I really don't think that pointing out that he was arriving the day after it's all over is being pedantic. I would like to think we were being helpful.
Giving him a chance to re-arrange is much better than him turning up on the 18th thinking "where's the party?" |

People giving genuine help = pedantic saddos so i wonder what a needlessly rude and disrespectful comment that helps absolutely nobody is? |

On the subject of places to meet up where are the places to go at night with a good vibe and what's best avoided? Appreciate that what's cool for some may be pants to others but want to use people knowledge to make a nice little list |

To start off the night depending on what you want to do ie tribute acts etc then start at morgans tavern at the top of the strip and just walk down from there most bars will have entertainment on we lovejail Rock as they do a the ska,jam madness etc.then finish up in the square. Cafe benidorm,and just opened last week Sinatra's just round the corner from Cafe B there the best ones after 1am till 7am |

Tried to do a meet one year and got told it’s for couples only. Which was a little shocking then ignored. I did meet with a group of people but it’s extremely hard with the amount of people there. It was at the firework display the night before briefly. Social of course. |

I tried arranging meets in the past it’s very hard with everything that’s going on. I am just going with the flow this year. I am sure i will bump into many of you. After the year I had I need to have a relaxing chilled one this year. If meets happen all the better if not no worries.
I am staying in the old town RH Canfali. Lovely hotel with amazing views |

Both other threads maxed out 
We spoke with a guy who was in a group of 14 staying at the Marina Hotel
Unfortunately with all the chaos (and alcohol) mixed in with a zillion messages from others we deleted the messages by mistake.
If you do read this get in touch |
