Les fêtes de bayonne

For four days and five nights of celebration, the city of Bayonne, Aquitaine, will host hundreds of thousands of "festayres".

With over a hundred balls, concerts, entertainment and shows, Bayonne aims to offer free entertainment for all, throughout the day and night ...

Since 1932, the city has hosted "festayres", from here or elsewhere and of all ages, who wear the uniform of rigor: white trousers, white shirt, scarf and "cinta" red. From cow races to mutxikos, balls, corso, bullfights, mascleta, children's day and hectic nights where everyone parties in the streets, bodegas and other peñas, the Bayonne festivities are the unmissable event of the summer.

This great festive gathering is deeply marked by the cultural identity of the region with its dances, music and traditional songs. All the Bayonne associations are mobilizing and hundreds of volunteers are working to offer you these magical moments.
