Suggestions for the month of March

Semana Santa Bilbao:

Every year during the Holy Week the traditional processions of Bilbao astonish the tourists and foreigners in general. This year 2018 the Holy Week will take place from the 23rd of March until the 1st of April. These religious celebrations have very deep roots in Spain and are spectacular, especially in Bilbao with the highest number of brotherhoods and steps (sculptures) in the north of Spain after León, Valladolid and Zaragoza.

Basque Fest:

Every single year during the Holy Week the city of Bilbao helds the Basque Lands Festival. The festival will be filling the city with Basque cultural and artistic events in different spots including Arenal Park, Plaza Nueva, Azkuna Zentroa, and the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao. This year 2018 the Festival will take place from the 28th of March until the 2nd of April.

La Regata (Ingenieros-Deusto):

Every single year during the first day of the Holy Week, the river Nervión helds this Olympic rowing competition between the Engineer School and University of Deusto crews, two prestigious university centres with over a century of history in teaching and sports. This year 2018 the event will take place on the 25th of March.
