Events calendar Vélo Pays Basque

For several years now, the Campo de Feria has been established around the bullring as a matter of course, a direct legacy of the great "romerias" organized in the Vauban moat by the Cercle Taurin in the early 1950s. A great event bringing together the festive atmospheres of Seville, Pamplona and Bayonne. Around the bullring, exhibitions, bars and restaurants, musical entertainment, parades, tertulias ... and the plaza of Bayonne is ablaze from morning to evening in an atmosphere very aficionada and festive around the bullfights of the Feria de l'Atlantique.

Since 1990, storytelling, in all its diversity and magic, has delighted Capbreton's inhabitants for 4 days. This festival places particular emphasis on young audiences.

The ^35th edition of this festival is sure to be a great escape! Be sure to visit the village in the MOP garden.
