Woodscôte Festival

Woodscôte Festival: rock, skate and surf on the Côte des Basques

The Woodscôte Festival was born in 2024 from the shared passion for surf, skate and rock of a collective of local riders and artists, BTZ Downhill, founded by Jordan and Alain Sevellec. Inspired by the energy of the first edition of BTZ Downhill, this festival immediately established itself as an unmissable event of the Biarritz summer on the mythical Côte des Basques.

100% live music

Woodscôte's trademark is its 100% live music program: over fifteen concerts spread over three days, covering rock, pop and rap, with no DJ sets. This commitment to live music creates an authentic and electric atmosphere, in line with the vintage 70s rock spirit that permeates the festival.

Skate, downhill and surf

The sports component is just as ambitious:

• Skateboard competitions: demos and contests with a prize pool of approximately 4,000 euros
• Downhill: descent races on the slopes of the Côte des Basques
• Surf contest: competition on the waves of the Côte des Basques with a prize pool of approximately 2,000 euros

Art and creation

The festival also hosts live painting performances and in situ artistic creations, adding a visual and creative dimension to the event. Local and guest artists transform the festival space into an open-air gallery.

A spirit of Peace, Love & Unity

The Woodscôte Festival cultivates a spirit of diversity, passion and freedom. With a participatory entry starting from 1 euro, the event aims to be accessible to all — thrill-seekers, families, creatives and the curious — in a vintage and inclusive atmosphere that blends generations and cultures.
