Information
AT BTWC, WE ORGANIZE AND PARTICIPATE IN SEVERAL ACTIVITIES:
- On Friday, we will host dialogues on gastronomy and fish with internationally renowned chefs:
- Andoni Aduriz (Mugaritz)
- Aitor Arregi (Elkano)
- On Sunday, to bring the fair to a close in style, we will also have Eneko Atxa to talk about sustainability in the world of gastronomy.
Other activities
- Additionally, the program is complemented by:
- Tuna and Txakoli wine tasting and pairing activities, among others.
- Demonstrations of different tuna recipes from around the world.
- Also organized by BTWC, a different kind of activity will take place, aiming to raise social awareness for the cause we are promoting. This is an international declaration in favor of tuna sustainability—an international agreement of shared commitments among institutions, companies, and society, which will be presented next year at the Bermeo Tuna Forum. To share this with the public and encourage people to join the cause, a mural will be painted live in the tent on Friday using visual thinking.
- Lastly, the sales fair also returns to its traditional format with the exhibition and sale of products from the local canning sector, which is globally recognized for the high quality of its canned products.
