The summer season is approaching, and with it, Dantza Plazan returns, organized by the Luis Aramburu Folklore School. This new edition of Dantza Plazan, which resumes on May 8, will feature a changed format.
This time, the event will be more participatory and will take place in different locations in the city center. The public will be able to enjoy traditional dance every Friday at 7:30 PM, continuing until September 25.
A key novelty this year is that the activity will move between locations to provide greater visibility and encourage more people to join. Previously, all sessions were held exclusively in La Florida park.
Dantza Plazan will make stops in various central squares and spaces, moving away from its usual single venue this year. This way, the dances will reach more corners and residents of Vitoria-Gasteiz. New locations include the La Florida Kiosk, Plaza del Arca, Plaza de Santa Bárbara, Plaza Nueva, and Plaza de Santa María, with dates scheduled from May 8 to September 25.
“"With this expansion of locations, we aim to give them more visibility and allow more people to enjoy traditional dances and even encourage them to participate."
The program will maintain an initial explanation of the steps. Afterward, the festive atmosphere of the romería will take over. The public can continue dancing without the music stopping or receiving new instructions. The Folklore School team will lead the experience, acting as models to assist hesitant or inexperienced individuals, encouraging everyone to dance and experience Basque tradition.
