Some time ago, young people who had to go to the military
service, used to go home by home singing folk songs in
exchange of some money or food.
Nowadays, schools or little choirs are the ones who
organise the festival, going through the streets singing,
dancing and banging their sticks. It's a really enjoyable
festival, which transmits perfectly the Basque Country's
spirit.
