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.

In this year's festivities there will be no sucking or downhill of Celedón - the White Virgin Square - nor blouses and neskas programs, but concerts, folklore, bertsos performances, children's activities, theater, humor, ball and endless shows in different squares of the capital will be offered.

The concerts and shows of the Iradier Arena and the Buesa Arena and the theatre of the Main Theatre are added to these events organized by the City Hall.

Entry will be free and free until completion of the capacity, so it will not be necessary to purchase prior invitation.

From 4 to 8 August, the Municipal Music Band will offer concerts from 19:00 in the gardens of the Zulueta Palace. On the other hand, the City Council has decided to suspend the pasacalles of the giants and heads to be held in the Gipuzkoan town. This year, the barracks have been distributed in three txokos to be in Lakua-Arriaga, Salburua and Zabalgana between 21 July and 15 August.

The Txosnas of Vitoria-Gasteiz will not be put on sale this year, but the txosnas commission has submitted a programme adapted to the situation on 5 August.
