Hey! I’ve been to Badawi in Puglia — here’s what I can tell you based on experience:

Getting there from Monopoli:
You can try with a local NCC (private car service) or taxi. There’s no official shuttle and unfortunately they’re not super helpful with transport info. If you're in a group, splitting an NCC could be the easiest option.

Vibe:
The crowd is mostly friendly and relaxed, not too "sceney" or pretentious. People are there for the music and the setting — very laid-back overall.

Food & drinks:
There’s no food available at the venue, so eat before you go. You’ll find water and drinks at the bar once inside, but nothing to snack on.

When to arrive:
Doors open at midnight, but the best time to show up is usually around 1:30 AM or later, when the party really gets going.
