Guilcher dance film colloquium, Médiathèque de Bayonne

Médiathèque de Bayonne

On Wednesday 18 November 2026 at 09:00 the Médiathèque de Bayonne hosts a colloquium on the films of the ethnologist Jean-Michel Guilcher, shot in the Basque Country and Béarn in the 1960s and 70s around traditional dance. The morning session puts the archive in context, with talks by Claude Iruretagoyena, Mône Guilcher and Jon Iruretagoyena, among others. The afternoon analyses the films territory by territory, from Soule and Navarre to Labourd, Lower Navarre and Béarn, with dance teachers and researchers. The day closes with an evening from 18:30 to 20:00 of a musical, danced and commented screening with students of the Maurice Ravel conservatoire and the Pau conservatoire. The listing says registration is required, through an online form, and does not give a price. The event is listed as running until 21:00. A colloquium is easy to attend alone, as the talks and breaks give natural moments to chat with other attendees. «Ce colloque permettra de mettre en lumière les films de l'ethnologue Jean-Michel Guilcher, réalisés au Pays basque et en Béarn autour de la danse traditionnelle.» Starts 09:00, ends about 21:00. Source: OpenAgenda — Institut culturel basque - Euskal kultur erakundea (open data). The listing gives a full-day programme and registration by online form, but no price.

Xalbador tribute night with the Orquesta de Iparralde, Bayonne

Trinquete Moderne

On Friday 27 November 2026 at 20:00 the Trinquete Moderne in Bayonne, in the French Basque Country, hosts Xalbadorren Omenezko Gaua, a concert in honour of the bertsolari Fernando Aire Etxarte, known as Xalbador. The listing says his companions called him the Rimbaud of the Basque Netherlands, and that he left a deep mark on the history of bertsolaritza. For the 50th anniversary of his passing, the Orquesta de Iparralde gives a new concert in his honour under the baton of Philippe de Ezcurra, mixing verse, song and poetry in the presence of guest singers and bertsolaris. Philippe de Ezcurra also plays bandoneon. The singers named are Aire Ahizpak, Mixel Etxekopar, Ekhi Lambert, Maialen Errotabehere and Pier-Pol. The language is Basque, and tickets cost 20, 24 or 28 euros. The end shown is estimated. «Bertsoa, kantua eta poesia nahasiko dira omenaldi hunkigarri batean.» Starts 20:00, ends about 22:00.

Kantuz!, the choir Xaramela's 40th anniversary concert, Bayonne

Église de la Sainte-Croix (Gurutze Sainduko eliza)

On Sunday 29 November 2026 at 17:00 the choir Xaramela celebrates its 40th anniversary in Bayonne with Kantuz!, a concert show in the Holy Cross church. The listing says several musicians from the Harmonie de Bayonne take part, and credits EKE, the Basque cultural institute, as the source. The show is billed as musika ikusgarria, a musical spectacle, rather than a plain recital. The language is Basque. Tickets cost 15 or 18 euros. The listing gives no end time, so the end shown is estimated at about an hour and a half, a usual length for a choir concert with guest players. A choir concert in a church is easy to attend alone, as everyone sits facing the singers. ««Kantuz!» musika ikusgarria: Xaramela» Starts 17:00, ends about 18:30.

Agissez comme si vous ne pouviez pas échouer, L'Atalante, Bayonne

L'Atalante

On Tuesday 1 December 2026 at 19:00 the cinema L'Atalante in Bayonne shows the documentary Agissez comme si vous ne pouviez pas échouer as a special evening. The listing describes a sensitive dive into the life of Claude Alphandéry, following him at the rhythm of his convictions, from the Resistance to the founding of France Active and of the Labo de l'ESS. The evening is organised in partnership with France Active, and the listing tags the film with the name Mathieu Pheng. The screening runs from 19:00 to 19:52. The listing does not give a price, and tickets are handled through an online ticketing link given in the listing. A documentary screening like this is easy to attend alone, since the audience sits facing the film and there is no need to come with company. «À travers une plongée sensible dans la vie de Claude Alphandéry, on chemine au rythme de ses convictions.» Starts 19:00, ends about 19:52. Source: OpenAgenda — SCARE - Syndicat des Cinémas d'Art, de Répertoire et d'Essai (open data). The listing gives the 19:00 start, a 19:52 end and a ticketing link, but no price.

Elimberri in concert at the Bayonne city-centre mediatheque

Hiri barneko mediateka

On Thursday 3 December 2026 at 18:15 the Hiri barneko mediateka, the city-centre mediatheque of Bayonne in the French Basque Country, hosts a concert by the group Elimberri. The Kulturklik listing, sourced from EKE, gives only the basics: the type is a concert, the language is Basque, and entry is free. It gives no description of the music, no line-up and no length, so this page says no more than that. The end shown is estimated. A free concert in a mediatheque hall is one of the easiest things to join alone: you walk in, take a seat among the other listeners, and nobody expects you to arrive with a group. It is also a quiet, low-pressure way to hear music in Basque in the middle of the city. «Elimberri taldearen kontzertua.» Starts 18:15, ends about 19:15. Source: Kulturklik — Basque Government / Open Data Euskadi (CC BY 4.0). The listing gives no end time, so the end shown here is estimated.

Margo tailerra helduentzat, Bonnat-Helleu Museoa, Bayonne

Bonnat Helleu Museoa

On Saturday 12 December 2026 at 15:30 the Bonnat Helleu Museoa in Bayonne hosts Margo tailerra helduentzat, a painting workshop for adults led in Basque. The listing says the session is inspired by the forms, colours and subjects found in the works of the Bonnat-Helleu museum and is open to every level, as a space for free and sensitive creation. It explains that Léon Bonnat wanted the museum to be a place that trains the artist's eye, so the museum offers practical art workshops that invite participants to look at artistic work in a new way and to experiment through practice. The workshop is led by Nagore Amenabarro, a visual artist trained at the University of the Basque Country in Bilbao, who also teaches at the Bayonne art school. The price is 30 euros, tickets are bought through the listing, and the session runs from 15:30 to 17:30. A workshop like this is easy to join alone, since everyone is there to paint and share the space. «Maila guztientzat irisgarri den sormen libre eta sentikor baterako tartea.» Starts 15:30, ends about 17:30.
