December 6th. is El Día de la Constitucion. A celebration to mark Spain becoming a democracy. You will probably not even be aware of the national holiday in Benidorm, as it is only in the bigger cities that some people use is as a day for political protests.

December 8th. is El Día de la Inmaculada Concepción (Immaculate Conception), known in some places as Día de la Virgen (Virgin Mary's Day). A day when churches get busier.

Most people here also take the 7th. as an extra holiday too.

Tourism is largely unaffected by national and local holidays.
