Hendaia becomes the capital of the Mintzalagun groups throughout the Basque Country on June 5

  • After two years impossible to celebrate, Euskaltzaleen Topagunea organized the annual Mintzalagunak festival of Euskal Herria on 5 June in Hendaia. It is 30 years since the creation of the “mintzalagun groups”. And the dynamic has only been accelerated, today they are spread throughout the Basque Country. According to the latest data, over 6,000 people meet each week in the prefix. And to the extent that the pandemic has jeopardized these meeting spaces, another 1,000 people use the Internet to practice Basque through telematic meetings that have become an effective alternative.
