Summer in Bilbao

Plan and escape from the summer heat and enjoy pleasant temperatures during your summer vacation in the city of Bilbao located on Spain's north coast. It stays a bit cooler and wetter than travel destinations to the south, allowing you to enjoy its lush green hills. Reserve a car hire in Bilbao to enjoy all the summer festivities.

Aste Nagusia / Semana Grande

Visit during the Month of August and you can catch the city's biggest fiesta. Beginning the first Saturday after August 15th and lasting for nine days, Semana Grande is a city-wide party filled with music, street theater, firework displays, and lots of fun events for the whole family. Get around to the best parties during Semana Grande in your Bilbao car rental.

Bilbao Live Festival

For concert goers and lovers of live music the highlight of the summer in Bilbao is the Bilbao Live Festival. Since 2006 Bilbao has been hosting a hefty lineup of rock and pop music names every summer, such as Metallica, Iron Maiden, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and many more. To add this excellent concert into your vacation in Spain plan your trip around the first and second week of July.

Kiosko del Arenal

If you don't happen to catch the Bilbao Live Festival, there are plenty of open air concerts held throughout the summer at Bilbao's Kiosko del Arenal. Located across from Plaza Arriaga, this is the perfect place to enjoy some time outside and some excellent live music while the weather is nice.
