The fifth edition of the Bizan Fest Performing Arts Festival will be held in Vitoria-Gasteiz during May and June, celebrating the talent and creativity of the city's senior citizens.

This event will showcase the work developed in Bizan's performing arts workshops through various dance, theater, singing, humor, poetry, and music proposals. In total, nearly 1,000 people will be able to enjoy the scheduled performances in different city venues, featuring over 200 artists from 20 workshops.
Some groups will be led by instructors, while others will be generative and self-directed by the seniors themselves. Performances are scheduled across five different dates and locations in the city, including the civic centers of Salburua, Arriaga, and Aldabe, as well as the Federico García Lorca Theater and the Ignacio Aldecoa Cultural Center.

"Bizan Fest is a testament to the immense talent, creative capacity, and active participation of our city's senior citizens. This festival reflects how Bizan centers promote active aging, social relationships, and emotional well-being through culture and performing arts."

The Social Policies Councilor
Each performance is the result of the effort, enthusiasm, and commitment of those who participate in the workshops throughout the year. The festival also allows this work to be shared with the public and recognizes the active and leading role of senior citizens in the cultural life of Vitoria-Gasteiz.
Tickets are available for purchase at Bizan centers. The price for each event will be 2 euros, with the exception of the performance scheduled for June 8 at the Ignacio Aldecoa Cultural Center, which will be free and open to the public until full capacity is reached.
