FESTARA Tickets

FESTARA is a storied Basque vocal ensemble with roots dating back to 1968, when roughly 15 friends joined forces to celebrate Basque airs and cross-cultural choral pieces. Over the decades, FESTARA has become a trusted name in world music circles, known for its authentic homage to Basque vocal traditions presented with a contemporary sensibility. From national television appearances to archival releases, FESTARA continues to share its distinctive sound with audiences around the world.

Founded by a community of friends, FESTARA forged a path through vocal collaboration, blending Basque repertoire with modern arrangements. The group’s enduring appeal lies in its ability to preserve regional heritage while inviting new listeners to experience the warmth of Basque choral music. This page offers a concise biography, discography highlights, and details on upcoming appearances, including a prominent festival slot in Boise as part of Jaialdi 2025.

As a performer with a deep cultural connection, FESTARA emphasizes storytelling through voice. Notable moments include three appearances on Jacques Chancel's Grand Echiquier in the 1970s, which helped elevate their national profile, and a 1974 album collaboration with Pierre Meyzenc that was later reissued to preserve the group’s Basque choral heritage. Their 2012 release, Festara, on Agorila, showcases archival Basque vocal tradition presented through a modern lens. Fans can secure tickets for FESTARA performances and explore the ensemble’s influence on traditional Basque music, including the iconic song Les fêtes de Mauléon, tied to the Tour de France stop in Mauléon.
