The EHZ festival offered this weekend the first confirmed music groups: Belako, Kolinga, Africa Bibang, Ada Oda, Kristona and Muare, among others, in Irisarri from June 30 to July 2.

In addition to music, the festival has a wide cultural offer and other artistic disciplines, such as theatre, circuses and dances each year. Among them, the action of Otempodis, the dance company Ertza, has already been announced.

The organizers stress that they continue along the lines of recent years, bringing to the stage as many musical styles as possible and making known different melodies and expressions, with the aim of offering places to new creations. In the coming weeks, more guest creators will be announced.

"The LER, in continuous emergency"

This is the motto and the demand that the promoters of the festival have adopted, since there is a collaboration between past and present generations, and the LER has continually emerged. "Like the snake, the LER follows its path in zigzag: after passing through Rosa, Idauze-Mendi, Heleta and Lekorne, this year for the fourth consecutive year in Irisarri," they say.

Maintain format

This year the same model remains as in previous editions. In Plaza de Irisarri, during the day and free of charge, you will enjoy various animations, circuses and performances, as well as a children's corner. At the Casa de Cultura, called Hospital, talks, round tables and workshops will be held on "the current challenges and needs", which will continue in the afternoon. The latter yes, paid. The camping place will be next to you.

The first bonds were opened last December, but they have been reopened and will be closed shortly on 12 March. Tickets for the three days are for sale to 40 euros ehz.eus, in April the tickets will be revisited by announcing new groups and finally the ones from day to day.
