This year it will be on the second sat of the month as usual which is the 8th it will end on the 12th the wednesday, do not miss the firework finale it is a fantastic display, a tip go to the pontiente side on the beach for a fantastic view as it gets packed and plenty of room on that side and a better view. each day they have the big bombers take ear plugs thats at 2pm each afternoon, plenty going on every day during the festival all centred in the old town, lots of parades leaving the church each day around 11am great to watch, get a timetable from the tourist office of all the events

Have booked up for my first November fiesta (going Sat 7th - 10th) i know im missing the main fancy dress but fancy dress aint my thing and i cant be away from my little boy who'll be 1 and a half then for a full week!!
Staying at Rio park (stayed there before 10 years ago and recent reviews seem ok) Only £213 for 3 nights full board incl flight and transfer from newcastle, Not bad i thought.
6 of us going and i cant bloody wait. been to benidorm 6 times and LOVE IT! aint been since May 2006 so im well over due a trip.
So whats it all like.....

...........Alternatively, a good one at the end of this month just over 1½hrs drive from Torrevieja is Aguilas Carnival.
Plenty of coach trips for this one.

Just booked for a long weekend - 12th to 16th November which I think catches the last 2 days of this years festival. I've heard rumours that on the Thursday night (the day we arrive) its fancy dress night. Is that right? Dont want to turn up in costume to look a complete idiot!

The official Spanish Fiesta finishes the day before you arrive, but yes its the British fancy dress on the Thurs!!

I'm confused. Some people say it finishes on Wednesday 11th and other say Wednesday 18th and a few posts on this forum mention both dates. Does anyone know the definite dates? If it does finish on the 11th and we don't get there until the 12th will there still be plenty going on and most of the bars open -my parents went at the end of November last year and quite a few of the popular bars had closed and weren't due to reopen until just before christmas. We should have a good time anyway as it's dad's birthday on the 14th and mine on the 15th.

It finishes Wed 11th DEFINATE!!...But the brit fancy dress is on the 12th so you will catch that. There will still be enough going on in the resort, all the bars will be open and the cabaret acts on!
