Aste Nagusia (Basque Week) at Boise State University overlaps with Jaialdi, the largest Basque festival in the United States.
While Aste Nagusia is not associated with this event, we are excited to welcome visitors from the Basque Country and beyond to celebrate the cultural ties that connect us across continents. We encourage anyone participating in Aste Nagusia to visit the Basque Block and explore the many events Jaialdi has to offer.
