The EHZ festival this morning has given the third and final breakthrough. Among the musicians of Arberatz (Nafarroa Beherea) are Gorka Urbizu, Anari, Libe, Raimundo el Canasta, Bananas or DJ Reimy. Great and interesting names such as Belako, Su Ta Gar, Süne, Nakar, Pelax and Octopussy were announced in the two previous progress posters.
At the end of the story you can see the list of groups per day. The organization has highlighted that they have tried to offer a quality offer for all generations and tastes.
Current challenges
Beyond being a music festival, the LER is a different meeting point that offers a space for reflection and debate. That is why, once again, in this edition, current topics and social challenges will be on the table.
Although the rapporteurs did not report opening hours and places, on 7 May they announced the themes or starting points: there will be a talk to analyse the situation in Palestine, the European pact and immigration laws, the annual mobilizations of farmers, the reflection on the festival model and music, the use of Ertzaintza and new technologies, the Kimiri exhibition, the initiation of the Basque language, etc.
In addition, as usual, the organization of the RSI will prepare a children's corner. On Saturday and Sunday there will be inflatables, games and other animations.
Assistant call
Every year, they need hundreds of collaborators to push through the EHZ festival, and so they've stressed that everyone needs help in housing, in traffic, in food preparation, in safety, in the green brigade -- and, of course, in assembly. It will begin on 19 June and it will be open to anyone who will give a hand.
They call to register on the CER website.
Price clarifications
As the date approaches and programming becomes known, prices increase. Three-day bonds are sold today for 60 euros and at the same festival for 65 euros.
You can also purchase daily tickets. Friday and Saturday 25 euros and Sunday 19 euros.
Buses from multiple locations in Iparralde
From Atharratze, Baigorri and Baiona, the LER will organise round-trip buses every day. Each travel card may be purchased for €1.20 and will be available on 3 June.
The Festival will also offer a free sleeping space both in the camp and in the car park. The capacity is planned for hundreds of vehicles, but this year there will be no special van, although they have determined that it will be a quiet place to sleep.

On the one hand the heavy rain, on the other the unbearable sauna. And the sun of Sunday afternoon, excessive for many. Maybe not, but it was convenient to bring the umbrella as light as possible, as at any time it touched the rain, but it was also hot, so it was essential to... [+]
