Ordizia's Main Square will become the meeting point for Basque Country craft beer for the ninth consecutive year, with a fair and championship running from May 8th to May 10th.

This event, organized by Emaneurre, aims to promote the products of Basque Country brewers and serve as a gathering place for the sector. Since its inception in 2015, the fair has become a benchmark, and this year a large brewery will once again be set up in the Main Square.
In total, fourteen beer producers will participate, offering their creations directly to the public. These include Basabe (Legorreta), Kaneta (Hendaia), Baobeer (Elgeta), Iparra (Tolosa), Gross (Donostia), Atala (Burlata), Scimmia (Gasteiz), Garagart (Gasteiz), Brewery Land (Zumaia), Versum (Irun), Gerrigardo (Eskoriatza), Tensina (Jaca), Blas Tito (Gorliz), and Zampano (Aizarnazabal). Each producer will submit one beer to the competition, and a jury will select the best Basque Country beer, considering its appearance, aroma, and taste.
In addition to beer, there will be a wide gastronomic offer, including spit-roasted pork, croquettes, Lazkao talos, Dona Doni artisanal ice creams, and Artzabaltza artisanal bread. Music will also be a highlight, with live performances by the Pamplona brass band Broken Brothers Brass Band and the Urretxu electro-charanga Joseto Ta Alaiak. Furthermore, children can enjoy shows by the clown Pontx.
