The bandas, historically attached to the ferias of Pamplona in Spain, are groups of musicians who come here to play in "peñas» brass and percussion bands. The Festival des Bandas in Condom, a high-spirited town in the Gers, is quite simply the biggest gathering of brass bands in Europe! These musical groups are all too often used only as a background to festive events. Here it is quite the opposite: the music is in the foreground and the festival takes place around the music!
