Museums<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Bizkaian capital is preparing for this year’s Aste Nagusia (Bilbao\u2019s fiestas) right now, which means that there are hardly any concerts or plays during this period, as they are reserved for the week-long fiesta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In any event, if you visit Bilbao this weekend<\/strong>, you can visit some of the city’s many museums, such as the Guggenheim Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts, the Museum of Artistic Reproductions, the Maritime Museum and the Basque Museum<\/strong>, where the Bilboko Erraldoiak (Bilbao’s giants who take to the streets every morning for parades) are on display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And we must not forget the Athletic Club Museum<\/a><\/strong>, which contains more than 1,000 original objects and videos that will give you an insight into the heart and soul of Athletic Club and will also allow you to take a Tour of San Mam\u00e9s<\/a> to have a closer look at the inside of \u2018the Cathedral\u2019 of football. It is a unique way to learn about Athletic Club and its history, and one of the best family activities if you are in Bilbao<\/strong>.
