Where are the Peña clubs on Pamplona?

Most of the "Peñas" have their premises in different locations along the length of Jarauta Street, which is in the heart of the old quarter of Pamplona.

This street has always been fundamental in the celebrating of the Fiesta.

And indeed one of their basic "services" towards the well-being of the Fiesta is precisely here, where they open their premises to the general public for the duration of the festival. Each one has its own bar where you can eat (in some of them) and drink, sing and dance, any hour of the day or night, all through the eight days of the Fiesta. If they close for an hour or so, it will only be to stock up supplies to ensure the party continues.

Strangely enough, the different clubs only make up a membership of about five thousand people in total. So, in that sense, you can´t say they are truly representative of the total population of the city. On the other hand they are the ones who set the tone for the Festival and in fact they take part in meetings and committees with the Town Hall during the year to decide on what particular events will take place each year. They also get some financial help from the Town Hall to help in the preparations for the annual event.
