Lauaxeta Ikastola in Amorebieta-Etxano has become a hub for youth music this week, hosting the second edition of the Señeak Bizkaia Rock Campus, which brings together 22 teenagers from across Bizkaia for musical training and teamwork.

This initiative, jointly organized by the Bizkaia Provincial Council, the Señeak association, and Lauaxeta Ikastola itself, aims to foster musical passion among young people. Participants hail from various municipalities including Elorrio, Lekeitio, Gernika, Amorebieta-Etxano, Bilbao, Berriz, Lemoa, Usansolo, Sopela, Otxandio, Mungia, and Getxo.
Throughout the campus, each young person develops their role within a band, whether as a guitarist, singer, keyboardist, drummer, or bassist, thereby strengthening the collective experience. Organizers have maintained the number of places at 22 to ensure the quality of the experience, despite increased demand compared to the previous year.

"In Bizkaia, musical passion and talent are alive; we have more demand and a higher level each time. The objective of this campus is to show young people up close the benefits and opportunities that music offers."

Meanwhile, the Deputy for Basque Language, Culture, and Sports, Leixuri Arrizabalaga, highlighted the success of the previous edition and the continuation of the initiative. She stated that the excellent reception from young people, teachers, and families has encouraged them to continue supporting this project, incorporating new features that enrich the experience.
The campus will conclude this Friday with a concert at the Zornotza Aretoa. Here, participants will showcase everything they have learned during the week, offering a performance where creativity and teamwork will be the main protagonists. This event will mark the end of an intense week of learning and music, solidifying the campus as a commitment to artistic training and young talent in Bizkaia.
