On the first day of festivities thousands of people demonstrated in Estella against the veto and many of them came and continued in the pasacalles ‘Bajadica del Puy’. Both dantzaris and musicians passed normally through society, but many politicians from the City Hall continued in the cars of the Foral Police.
