Benidorm at Christmas: Enjoy the festivities, relax in paradise

Who said Christmas has to be grey and cold? While temperatures drop below freezing across much of Europe, here in Benidorm we have our own tradition: swapping scarves for sunglasses, and trading carols by the fireplace for strolls along the Mediterranean.

Experiencing Christmas and New Year’s Eve in Benidorm is an experience that combines the vibrancy of a major resort city with the mild climate of the Costa Blanca. If you are thinking of a getaway to bid farewell to 2025, here is why Benidorm is the trending destination and how to enjoy it in total comfort.

BeniNadal: The city is decked out in lights

From early December, Benidorm transforms. It is not just decoration; it is “BeniNadal”. The epicenter of the festivities is the Christmas Square (in front of the Town Hall), which this year once again becomes the magical heart of the city.

If you are visiting with your family, here is what you will find:

  • Ice Rink: To skate under the palm trees, a unique photo opportunity.
  • Christmas Market: Handicrafts and traditional sweets for those last-minute gifts.
  • Attractions and Shows: Free workshops and shows for the little ones almost daily until January 6th.

New Year's Eve in Benidorm tailored to your needs

The night of December 31st in Benidorm is legendary, but the best part is that it offers options for all tastes:

  • The Big Party: Thousands of people gather on Levante Beach and at the Plaza de SS.MM. Reyes de España to eat the lucky grapes and watch the fireworks.
  • The Quiet Option: This is where the magic of choosing the right accommodation comes in. Instead of a stiff gala dinner in a hotel, imagine dining on the terrace of your apartment, on your own schedule, toasting with cava and watching the city lights in the distance.

Three Kings 2026: A spectacular finale

If you extend your stay into January, you cannot miss the Grand Three Kings Parade on the evening of January 5th. It is one of the most spectacular in the province, ending with a fireworks display and the distribution of gifts at the Julio Iglesias Auditorium. Seeing the excitement on the children’s faces in this setting is the best gift.
