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.

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.
