National Basque Festival

The National Basque Festival returns July 3rd–5th —mark your calendars for an unforgettable weekend! 

Join us as we celebrate 62 years of Basque tradition alongside 250 years of the United States!

Here’s just a taste of what’s in store:

· Traditional dance performances & rural sports 

· Fireworks + live music under the stars

· Golf tournament and handball games 

· Delicious Basque food—paella, lamb, wine & more

· Cultural contests & community fun

Whether you're coming for the food, the culture, the music, or the memories—there’s something for everyone! Bring your friends, your family, and your festive spirit—let’s celebrate Basque style! 

 After 6 years of celebrating the National Basque Festival, we continue to be overwhelmed by the incredible support and love shown to the Elko Euzkaldunak Club year after year. None of it would be possible without our dedicated members, generous sponsors, loyal friends, and the supportive Elko County community.

This year, we were also honored to host Udaleku in the two weeks leading up to the Festival—a tremendous undertaking that was executed beautifully. This accomplishment would not have been possible without the hard work of our volunteers and the generosity of our sponsors.

From the bottom of our hearts—thank you for helping us keep Basque culture alive and thriving in Elko.
