Woodscôte Festival

Woodscôte Festival: Rock, Skate, and Surf on the Basque Coast

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. Inspired by the energy of the first BTZ Downhill edition, this festival immediately established itself as an unmissable summer event in Biarritz on the legendary Basque Coast.

100% Live Music

The hallmark of Woodscôte 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 70s vintage rock spirit that permeates the festival.

Skate, Downhill, and Surf

The sports component is equally ambitious:

• Skateboard competitions: demos and contests with a prize pool of approximately 4,000 euros
• Downhill: downhill races on the slopes of the Basque Coast
• Surf contest: competition on the waves of the Basque Coast with a prize pool of approximately 2,000 euros

Art and Creation

The festival also hosts live painting performances and on-site artistic creations, adding a visual and creative dimension to the event. Local and invited artists transform the festival grounds into an open-air gallery.

A Spirit of Peace, Love & Unity

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