The desire to party returns to Gallarta, which will celebrate its ‘San Antonios’ this weekend with a program full of activities for all ages. They will also be the safest days possible, as the Abanto City Council will once again launch the ‘Gautxori’, a free night bus service for residents, with seven stops between Gallarta and Sanfuentes and departures every forty minutes. “The objective is to make it easier for our neighbors to continue enjoying the festivities and to be able to return home safely, especially our young people,” the government team stated.
Music, dance, sports and even dog contests will animate the streets of the mining neighborhood until next Sunday the 18th. Among others, performances by DJ Oihan Vega, Dupla, the Nueva Alaska and Vulkano Show, Quinta Reserva and Urtz y Noche orchestras stand out. Tributera, as a tribute to Ska-P and Kortatu. The most ‘txikis’ can have fun with the clowns Txirri, Mirri and Txiribiton, as well as aquatic inflatables in the municipal swimming pools, archery and a large children’s playground in Blasco Ibáñez.
Sports lovers will have a range of proposals. The San Antonio Grand Prix of clay pigeon shooting in an Olympic pit with twenty-five targets, the XIV soccer tournament, the XII Open Chess Open, the XXXVI finals of the ‘Memorial Txelu Izaguirre’ handball championship in pairs, the league of borers (the participants will be Aldai Aldea, Piratak, Burdin Gazteak, Errekatxo, Kabiezes and Gallarta) and the XVIII slingshot championship. There will also be a shovel tournament in which Fusto and Ibai Pérez will compete against Maldonado and Urrutia. And the ‘San Antonio’ pelota tournament, where Urrutikoetxea and Morgaetxebarria will face each other against Artola and Iztueta.
Free of aggressions
The program includes other activities such as swimming exhibitions and German shepherd dogs, which will also compete in a contest. It is not the only contest that will take place, there will also be the XLVIII of the paella contest for lovers of cooking. Neighbors will also be able to enjoy giant wooden games, retro video consoles, solidarity markets, dance shows and will be able to try their luck playing bingo.
Abanto claims that they are parties free of sexist aggression. For this reason, an action protocol will be launched, which will be distributed among all the organizations that install their txosna, with some guidelines so that they know how to act in a situation like this. Bracelets with the motto ‘Soilik bai da bai’ will also be distributed, to make clear the importance of consent, and stickers and cards with telephone numbers of interest will be distributed. In addition, a purple tent will be installed from where educational and protest material will be distributed, and where trained and specialized personnel will give information and resolve all doubts to whoever approaches.
