Espelette Pepper Festival, celebrating the annual harvest of Piment d'Espelette, organizes several sports activities, including pepper tossing, wood cutting, and Basque pelota. However, to participate, you must be a member of a traditional Basque club. But even if you cannot participate, the festival spirit is great, and you can enjoy watching the various teams competing. You can also join the public dance shows in the streets, and the town transforms into a massive party place during the festival. Show more
