The journey to Rototom Sunsplash 2026 is underway. The international festival, a global icon on the reggae scene and a benchmark for diversity and multiculturalism, opens its first pre-sale window at a special price from Monday 15th until 31st December for what will be its 31st edition, to be held in the Mediterranean town of Benicàssim (Castelló, Spain) from 17th to 22nd August 2026.
Rototom Sunsplash enhances the experience with a Welcome Party
A new event that keeps alive the spirit that defines it: six days of live music, conviviality and awareness, which this year will debut with a great new feature to further enhance the experience: its Welcome Party on 16 August, which is fully integrated as another day of the festival, with eight hours of musical programming in the same concert venue and completely free for everyone with a ticket to Rototom Sunsplash.
Special price for early bird tickets
To encourage this new filming, the festival is launching an early bird ticket sale which, from Monday 15 December at 8pm until the 31st of the same month, will allow you to purchase a full pass at the special price of €155, including booking fees.
Thus, purchasing this reggae passport in advance means a saving of almost 50% on the final price of passes in August 2026. Translated into experience, it allows you to enjoy more than twelve hours a day of uninterrupted cultural and musical activity at Rototom Sunsplash for less than £26 per day.
Special discounts and symbolic price for children under 13
Once again this summer, the festival is maintaining its policy of special discounts to facilitate access to the concert venue. People over 65, with disabilities or under 13 can enjoy the entire festival for a symbolic, one-off solidarity payment of £10 - plus £1 for administrative costs - which will be donated in full to social projects. Likewise, the 50% discount on tickets and passes for children between the ages of 13 and 17 remains in place.
The most family-friendly festival of the summer, not to be missed in 2026
With the countdown to this first special price presale underway, Rototom Sunsplash invites its international community to start dreaming about summer 2026. Be part of the journey towards a new edition that promises to continue growing as a global, intercultural and open meeting point. Six days in which Jamaican roots music intertwines from the different stages with the multiple cultural offerings displayed in its themed spaces and the most international cuisine. In the most Mediterranean city of reggae, where life is bustling.
