- Attendance179,483 · 2026 Confirmed
- What is countedattendance across the whole programme, free open-air stages included
- Published byJazzaldia / Donostia Kultura
- Caveat on the figureThe 61st edition. Tickets sold: 16,272 — and the gap to the attendance figure is explained not by accounting but by the programme: the Trinidad and Zurriola stages are free. The body does not say whether it counts people or admissions. Ticket buyers came from 37 countries; that is breadth among BUYERS, not among the audience, and it is recorded in the visitor-origin register as exactly that.
- Audience originThe body publishes 37 countries among ticket buyers (16,272 tickets). No shares are published. This is not and cannot be a passport of the audience: 163,211 of the 179,483 came to the free Trinidad and Zurriola stages, and their nationality is recorded nowhere.
- Share is ofcountries represented among TICKET BUYERS
- Inbound flow to the community that month395,360 foreign trips — 11.7% of the community's annual flow. The community peaks in August. Estimate
- Country mix of the flowThe country mix is published for August only, and for a festival in July it says nothing: putting it here would pass one month off as another.
- What this is NOTThis is the flow into the community, not the audience of the festival. Not one of the 83 Spanish festivals publishes a visitor passport. Basis: trips inferred from phone positioning — NOT a passport — TMOV_R, measurement from mobile-phone positioning.

How to read the marks
- 'confirmed' on an attendance figure means: a named body stated it for a named edition.
- 'estimate' means: the body itself presents the figure as an estimate and publishes no method.
The month is given for a typical year: Spanish fiesta dates often follow the church calendar and move. Verified 1 September 2026. Every figure on this page comes from the same register that feeds the tables — there is no second source of truth. What the register does not hold is absent here rather than estimated.
