The Basque Book and Record Fair of Durango, presented on Wednesday in Bilbao, will be held from December 6 to 10. This edition will pay special attention to travelling, and there will be many activities linked to the issue, among them round tables, interviews, film releases and picture shows.

Furthermore, Radio Euskadi's travelling programme head Roge Blasco will be interviewed and the film El vasco de la carretilla will be released on the inauguration day.
There will also be music in this fair. Karidadeko Benta and Pata Negra will offer an inter-cultural concert, and there will also be a photo show entitled "Paraleleo 21." The Web site of the fair will give some room for chatting with Eneko Etxebarrieta and Miyuki Okabe, touring around the world by tandem.
Argizaiola Award and commercial
In turn, the Argizaiola Award of the Basque Book and Record Fair of Durango will be for the magazine Jakin on its 50th anniversary. The magazine has 2,300 subscribers and around 6,000 readers, and has always searched to merge Basque language and culture.
Miriam Peña, from Durango, designed the poster to announce this edition, and for the first time, a TV commercial will announce the fair. Several well-known figures appear in the ad inviting people to visit and enjoy the Basque Book and Record Fair of Durango.
