If you’re like City Cast Boise producer Evelyn Avitia and have never tried Basque food, this weekend is a great opportunity to change that, with the San Inazio festival running today through Sunday.
The festival honors Saint Ignatius of Loyola, a 15th and 16th century soldier and Catholic priest who became the patron saint of the Basques.
Throughout the weekend, the Basque Block will be filled with traditional dancing and sporting events — here’s the whole schedule.
If crowds aren’t your vibe, here’s where you should go and what you should try after the festival.

From hyper-local to international chain: Starbucks is expanding its already massive footprint in the Treasure Valley. Here are three new locations the corporation is hoping to open, according to BoiseDev:
- The company is looking at building a store at the intersection of Maple Grove Rd. and Chinden Blvd.
- It’s also pitching a new drive-thru to neighbors of a previous US Bank building on Airport Way, which would be torn down.
- CBS2News reports that a new location is coming soon to Ten Mile Road, just off I-84 in Meridian.
And lastly, want to branch out and try some new ice cream this weekend?
