San Juan 2026
The most magical night of the year on the Mediterranean coast is celebrated in full swing on the beach in the early hours of June 23–24 with the Bonfires of San Juan 2026.
For thousands of people, this night is much more than just a popular celebration. It is tradition, excitement, reunions, and that feeling of starting anew by leaving the old behind.
Alicante’s Bonfires of San Juan
Every year, from 19th to 24th June, Alicante comes alive with spectacular monuments, mascletàs, music, parades and festive activities throughout the city.
The Bonfires originated more than a century ago, inspired by an old tradition among Alicante’s farmers, who celebrated the summer solstice by burning old belongings as a symbol of renewal and good fortune.
One of the most anticipated moments takes place on the night of 24th June during the traditional Cremà, when fire consumes the monuments and Alicante bids farewell to its festivities amidst emotion, fireworks and thousands of visitors. The city embraces the celebrations wholeheartedly, creating the perfect atmosphere for couples, groups of friends and families alike.
The night of San Juan in Benidorm
Benidorm once again becomes one of the most popular destinations to celebrate the shortest night of the year.
Levante Beach and La Cala will welcome thousands of visitors who will enjoy music, bonfires by the sea and an unforgettable atmosphere until the early hours.
The traditional beach celebration combines concerts, fireworks, and the classic San Juan rituals: jumping over the waves, making wishes, and burning everything we want to leave behind in the fire.
If you choose to stay with us at any of our 9 hotels in Benidorm, our entertainment team will prepare special themed activities and events, allowing you to experience Saint John’s Night in Benidorm in a truly memorable way with Servigroup Hotels.
