Cientos de personas durante el comienzo de la Semana Grande de Bilbao 2025, en el centro de la ciudad, a 16 de agosto de 2025, en Bilbao, Vizcaya, País Vasco (España). La Bilboko Aste Nagusia es la principal fiesta de Bilbao, que se celebra anualmente durante nueve días a partir del sábado siguiente al 15 de agosto. El inicio de las fiesta lo marca la lectura del pregón y el lanzamiento del txupín (cohete) por parte de la txupinera. Instantes después aparece en el balcón la gran Marijaia, personaje ficticio cuyo nombre significa señora de las fiestas, que presidirá las fiestas de la ciudad hasta que la quemen el último día.
