Since its creation, the dance group has performed in almost every municipality and every province throughout Spain.

The name "Salleko" means "of La Salle" in Basque (Salle-ko).

The group is based in a facility ceded by the private Catholic school Colegio Begoñako Andra Mari-La Salle in the municipality of Sestao (a school that emerged in 2001 from the merger of the contiguous schools Colegio Hermanos de La Salle, for boys, and Colegio Hijas de la Cruz, for girls).

[11] In addition, the Salleko dance group organizes annual events such as the Folklore Show, the Umeen Euskal Jaia, dance workshops, pilgrimages and others.

[12] Within the annual organization of the Folklore Show, groups from all over the world are also invited to Spain.
