Gasteizko Gaztetxea

Gasteizko Gaztetxea is a self-managed youth center in the Old Town of Vitoria-Gasteiz where young people organize cultural events and activities independently. The building serves as a venue for concerts, art exhibitions, workshops, and social meetings run by the community itself.

The center was founded in 1988 when young people took over the building and began renovating it themselves. Since then, it has operated as an independent space run by the local youth community.

Young people here manage activities themselves, organizing concerts, art shows, and workshops without outside direction. You can witness how the community makes decisions together about what happens in the space.

The center is located in the heart of the Old Town and is easily accessible on foot. Programs and opening times vary based on the group's activities, so checking ahead or stopping by to learn about current events is recommended.

The center has maintained its independence and self-management for over three decades despite repeated attempts to change how it operates. This persistence makes it a rare example of youth self-organization in the city.
