Rotxapea Peña

Located at no. 1 Calle Abaurrea Alta. Ground floor. Telf. 948 -121-365

This peña club started up with the idea of creating a vicinity club for the young people of the area who were spread about among different Peñas around Pamplona as they did not have any Peña in their own area. The Sports club, Unión Cultural y Deportivo Rotxapea, created a section for this new Peña on the 24th of March, 1979, with Bernardo Apesteguía as the first president.

Their present premises is the same ever since 1982, while earlier they had used the Gure Txokoa in the Ave Maria. There are about 200 members. They use a premises at 73 Decalzos during the days of the San Fermin fiestas.

The relationship between Peña Rotxapea and Sanfermin is prolific. In addition, it is active in sports areas, helping out the Club de Waterpolo Navarra when it was needed. Last year, in 2008, they organized round tables on Sanfermin and the bulls, during six consecutive Tuesdays between May and June.
