In 1977, several young men from the San Juan neighborhood took the initiative of founding this Peña club with the same name as their area. They started up right in the fiestas on the 7th of July. Not until 1985 did the club change its name to Donibane. Their premises dates from 1979 in the Virgen de Codés Street. They dress in classic Sanfermin gear and with a light blue smock and a necktie with the club badge.

This is the largest Peña in Pamplona. The big number of members meant that the club had to buy a bigger premises in the Avenida de Barañain and this remains their present location. This new premises had formerly been a bar -restaurant EL Burger and the El Kilikis restaurant. They also bought up the Bar 35 in Jarauta Street and this is their headquarters during the fiestas where the use the name Galtzerdi.

This club has a lot of different activities going besides the Sanfermin fiestas. There are cookery courses as well as Basque language classes and many competitions of varies sports and card games. It is a popular gastronomic club with a dynamic membership. Among their anecdotes was the famous theft of their banner one year on the 7th of July. It was necessary to take recourse to the children's banner that year. Some months later the banner reappeared in the town. Membership day is celebrated during the Sanfermin fiestas.
