The streets of Aretxabaleta have transformed into a dance stage for the 10th Dantzastea festival, featuring projects from different disciplines and the participation of diverse groups.

Ainara Larrañaga, a member of the management team at Jaiki Elkartea, stated that for this edition, they aimed to "bring projects from the world of dance to the town." She also emphasized that when compiling the program, they particularly considered "opportunities for different collectives".
"We try to give a deserved place to different driving groups," Larrañaga said. "Yesterday, for instance, we had the Kiki House of Anunnaki group, but this week we also hosted a group with functional diversity".
Today, the Day of the Dancer was celebrated in the streets of Aretxabaleta, marking the end of the 10th Dantzastea. The initiative began on May 23rd and has included numerous dance-related activities in the town's streets over the past few days.
The program featured workshops and courses, performances of various dance styles, and, in addition to concerts, several music-related shows.
