Tickets and prices

Each festival sells through its own official website, and that is where you should buy to avoid resale markups. At Viveros, tickets start from 25 € and vary by artist, with an average around 37 €. At FAR, every concert has its own price. For Zevra and Medusa, the norm is a multi-day pass with a camping option. Check the official lineup before paying, since it can still shift.

Getting there

FAR's Marina Norte sits next to Malva-rosa beach, with metro and city bus access. Viveros is right in the centre, beside the Turia Gardens. For Cullera and Gandia, the C-1 Cercanías train links València with the southern coast, and festivals like Medusa usually run shuttles from the station. If you are weighing car against public transport, see our guide on how to get around València.

What's nearby

Concert days pair well with beach and rice: the old town is near Viveros, and FAR sits beside the seafront chiringuitos. For where to eat, start with our guide to the best paella, and to cool off outside the city, the natural pools nearby. Cullera and Gandia both work as a day trip from València.

Tips

Buy early: Jarre at FAR and Deep Purple at Viveros sell out fast. At beach festivals bring sunscreen, a cap and comfortable shoes, and work out how you'll get back (last shuttle or a pre-booked taxi). To catch every lineup change and the one-off shows announced at the last minute, check our live events agenda, updated each week with what is actually happening.
