During the month of May, with its Ancient Music Concerts, the Ziortza-Bolibar Collegiate Church is transformed into one of the most important auditoriums in the Basque Country. Groups and soloists of the highest international prestige take part in the Concerts.

Oxen trial 
In Etxebarria
There is hardly a town or village, however small, which does not hold country sport displays and contests during their local festivals. There are many versions of these sports.

In Berriatua, the well-known stone dragging with oxen events take place during the festivals in honour of Saint Peter. Stone dragging is also a great tradition in Markina-Xemein. In Ispaster, horses are also used to drag the stones (Zaldi Mando).

Etxebarria also holds interesting displays of country sports during the town's festivals.
