Bilbo was not the only city in which the Basques expressed their opinions.
In Iruñea, the capital city of Nafarroa, thousands demonstrated to push for the recognition of Euskera throught the whole of the province.
Seems like the organizers were greatly satisfied with the response to their call:

In Iruñea, the capital city of Nafarroa, thousands demonstrated to push for the recognition of Euskera throught the whole of the province.
Seems like the organizers were greatly satisfied with the response to their call:
Thousands and thousands of people braved the cold in Iruñea (Pamplona) yesterday and supported the rally organised by the Oinarriak platform (an association of 15 organisations working for the standardisation of Basque in Navarre). People went out into the streets (between 12,000 and 15,000 of them, according to the organisers) to demand that the Basque language be officially recognised all over Navarre. Irantzu Onko, a member of the platform, said afterwards she was “delighted” with the response by the public to the call made by Oinarriak, but added that there “is still much work to be done”.
Unlike the one in Bilbo, seems like this one had a lighter tone:
It was a festive atmosphere all along the route of the march thanks to the musicians who had joined it. The demonstration was led by Basque dancers. Members of the Amaiur dance company carried flags of Navarre and red, white and green Basque flags or ikurriñas. They were followed by the main banner of the march carried by Oinarriak members. It said: Euskara, ofizialtasuna Nafarroa osoan (Official Recognition for Basque throughout Navarre).
One thing though, no matter the tone, both were as important.
