Bloodless Bullfights - July 11th Recortes

During the 2026 San Fermines and on July 11th only, experience the incredible "bloodless bullfights" of Pamplona, also known as the "recortes". During this event, professional "recortadores" practice the ancient sport of bull-leaping, which has been practiced since the Minoan civilization of the Bronze Age. This bullfight is a competition, in which "recortadores" compete for points by getting as close as possible to the bulls' horns while performing acrobatic leaps and somersaults over the bulls. No bulls are killed during this event. This event starts at 11am and lasts until around 12:45pm. If you plan to be in Pamplona on Saturday, July 11th, plan to attend this hugely popular event, known as the "recortes". This event happens just one day of each year's fiesta - in 2026, the big day is July 11th. We predict that the "recortes" will be one of your highlights of your entire summer travels! See you there!

Tickets are general admission, so you can sit right up in the front in the lower-deck shade side if you get to the Plaza de toros (bullring) early, lining up around 10:15am. The "shade" side of the lower "Tendidio" section of the arena will be Sections 7, 8, and 9 at this time of day.

As for any sporting event, these tickets are non-refundable, but they are transferrable to other persons if your travel plans should change.
