Since the '60s, the word holiday has been directly related to the word Benidorm. Each year, most of them integrated into the Levantine culture, more than 30 celebrations taking place in its streets, beaches, lands ...

Furthermore, in Benidorm, we must mention other holidays as the Pilgrimage and Festivities in honor of the Virgen del Suffrage, which take place in mid-November. Note also that in benidorm many houses there are regional (Andalusia, Galicia, Asturias, etc ...) who celebrate their festivals even though they are far from their region by numerous street parades, and celebrations typical of the place.
