The calendar rules, and it is 29 November, feast of San Saturnino; so we travel to Artajona. Nothing is missing, the Race of San Saturnino on Saturday 29 and the chestnut roast held afterwards at the Plaza de los Fueros at 1.00 pm, will open the weekend.

It was in the 3rd century when San Saturnino baptised the first Christians in Pamplona —San Fermín among them. On 29 November, Pamplona pays homage to its patron saint in a day full of institutional and festive activities.

The 16th Game Food Festival in the Baztán-Bidasoa district is here. Throughout November, many restaurants in the area will be preparing special menus that include deer, roebuck, partridge, pigeon and wild boar specialities... a tempting way of getting closer to autumnal aromas.
