Ixelles, Belgium. It has been sixty years since this Belgian city and Biarritz became sister cities, and to mark the occasion, a Basque festival will be celebrated on the Flagey Plaza on July 12th. There will be a sokatira competition, herri-kirolak demonstrations by the Ñapurrak Association from Ezpeleta-Espelette, and the music will be provided by five singers who will travel from the Basque Country accompanied by accordionist Jean-Louis Bergara.
The (open) Sokatira Competition will take place from 11am-1pm with teams of 6-8 people. Herri Kirolak will follow from 1pm-6pm.
