The traditional event between bertsolaris fans from Athletic Club and Real Sociedad will take place on Friday at 11:15am in the Olalde Aretoa
The Athletic Club Foundation has organised, together with the Real Sociedad Foundation, a new edition of the traditional BertsoDerbia. On this occasion, the bertsolaritza football event will be held in Mungia on 22 November at 11.15am at the Olalde Aretoa. The event will be attended by Aissa Intxausti and Mikel Goiriena on behalf of the Athleticzales and Ane Zuazubiskar and Aitor Tatiegi on behalf of the Realzales. As “gaijartzaile” they will be able to enjoy a real eminence such as Andoni Egaña.
There will be no tickets on sale as this year’s BertsoDerbia is aimed at all 1st year ESO students from the schools in Mungia: IES Mungia BHI, Ikastola Larramendi and Bentades Ikastetxea. As a novelty, there will also be a mini-competition of bertsos between students with two winners who will be able to attend the derby in San Mamés with their mother / father / tutor.
The Athletic Club Foundation, through events such as BertsoDerbia, seeks to promote Basque culture, bertsolaritza and the use of the Basque language. Collaborating so closely with the Real Sociedad Foundation allows us to promote healthy rivalry in a match as important as a derby, unifying respect, sport and culture.
