In fact, they have reported that there are still 249 political prisoners in Euskal Herria. They have also reminded the eleven deportees and fugitives, as well as their relatives: "The solution should be present and synonymous with the future," said the members of the organization, Jaialdi or, "but they want us to lock ourselves up in the past and instead of taking steps forward they want to attack the rights of Basque political prisoners, fleeing, deportees and their relatives. The last is that the family is also being robbed of the right to express their love.
A number of new developments have been announced. Besides the return of the Iheskide group that opened in front, oh! The Mallorcan band The Arrase has announced that it will be back on the stage after 20 years of absence for work reasons. They have thanked the members of Rotten XIII for their willingness to act in Villava "after a difficult year". In previous editions 11 or 12 groups have been played, but this year will be 18. In addition, instead of being divided into two scenarios, the groups will play into three. There will also be a new space.
