Dancing, singing and food on the go!

  • On the first weekend of January the earliest ones have left. The first were those of Beskoitz and until the beginning of February, every Saturday and Sunday they will dance in the neighborhoods of the town at home and at the party. The houses of Beskoitz are the earliest and most exits, but not the only ones. Also the shells of other towns in Lapurdi announce their departures. We have received those from Uztaritze, Itsasu, Beskoitze, Donibane Lohizune, Cambo and Biriatu.

Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

The cascarotes are groups of young people who make rounds at Lapurdi during the carnival. It is usually an internal party, many times they spend hours inside the houses eating, singing and feasting, but if along the route you are up to the height, luck. They move to the melody and rhythm of the marches from one side to the other and in the pauses dance dances like ximples, marmperios, sticks, large clubs, dance jumps, fandango... Ponpier and the characters of red cotton are part of the group, sometimes banderizes and reds, and in some places and times the bear has appeared.
