The day began in Zumaia under cloudy skies, but this did not prevent the continuation of events on the second day of the San Pedro festivities. Activity in the town picked up around midday, particularly in the Eusebio Gurrutxaga square, which hosted a rural sports exhibition accompanied by the Beti Jai band. Athletes from various disciplines participated, including wood chopping (aizkora), stone lifting (harri jasotze), and other strength-based challenges.
The exhibition featured athletes from different generations, such as Hodei Ezpeleta, Estefania Etxebeste, Goizeder Beltza, Carlos Ruiz de Aretxabaleta, and Enara and Aratz Beltza, who were enthusiastically watched by the public from behind barriers.
