Every five years Boise welcomes the Basque community and anyone else interested from all over Europe and the state of Idaho for the week of Jaialdi. The week of Jaialdi is a huge cultural festival that the Basque cultural celebrates. This year Boise is hosting a soccer match July 18 at 7 p.m. located at Albertsons Stadium. They're calling it the Soccer Friendly if you haven't heard.

This soccer match will be hosting the Athletic Club Bilbao versus Club Tijuana de Xolitzcuintles de Caliente from Mexico. All proceeds raised from the soccer match will go to non-profit organizations. The Basque Studies Foundation and Idaho Youth Soccer Association are raising money for Basque studies and soccer scholarships. Tickets are on sale for the soccer match at basquesoccerfriendly.com.
