This year’s edition was presented on 3 October, with a duration of between this month and December. "The small format will be the protagonist", according to the organizers of the event, to be held in Bilbao. The main novelty of this year is that it will reach beyond Ondarroa. Aiert Goenaga, representative of the Ranpiko of the Port of Ondarroa, said that "if last year we started with illusion, we are already in the fourth". "When all this started in the summer of 2015, we couldn't imagine at all that the fourth edition was in network format. We maintain the objectives we set at the beginning, completing the cultural offer of the people and bringing the citizens closer to Basque music with the objective of being an effective means for the transmission of Basque culture. But this year also outside Ondarroa."

It is precisely this Tuesday that the concert programme starts in small format, but not in Ondarroa, but in Pamplona/Iruña. In Katakrak will be live Lauroba and Petti from 19:00 and tickets for the concert are on sale for 10 euros. Thursday will be the turn of Mikel Urak in the Bira space of Bilbao, from 20:30 a.m. The first concert of Ondarroa will be held on Friday: The Montauk Vitorian team joins the Ranpin of the Port of Bilbao.

At the moment, they are the first concerts that have been announced within this special concert schedule. The organisers have announced that they will be gradually reporting on upcoming events.

Commitment to collaboration

Lutxo Egia, responsible for the space located on Ronda de Bilbao Street, has stressed that the axes of this collaboration with Bira and Katakrak have been "the Basque, culture and networking". "Because the Redstone network covers all those things, we didn't think twice when we had the opportunity to be part of the project. We've already taken the first step to complete the network, now time will tell us how far it all comes."

In Katakrak, the proposal was also welcomed with good eyes from the very beginning. "We will integrate it naturally in the old town of Central City. At the end of the day, Pamplona is very popular and we believe it will work very well according to the philosophy of the project," explains Hedoi Etxarte, representative of Katakrak.

For her part, singer Miren Narbaiza spoke about the importance of the project for creators: "These kinds of initiatives are essential to connect in a more intimidating way with the public. In fact, the small format is very enriching for the receiver, on the one hand because of the conditions that are given to enjoy the performance and on the other because it is usually given after the concert".

Of the same opinion is Inés Osinaga: "The creation of a new plaza is always a source of joy when you see a square tripling. In these times when we are increasingly less concerned about the transmission of our culture, these kinds of initiatives are a kind of oasis for creators. We're going to go up to the scene with illusion."
