2026 Bullfight Tickets

Sections of the Arena

Pamplona's bullfights are unlike anything else in the world.

In the shade side of the arena, sit in comfort among the more serious, quieter bullfight fans who will likely comment on the art of the fight and the nuances of each matador. In the sun side of the arena, between July 7th-14th, you should expect to party, dance to the music of local brass bands, and potentially be splashed with celebratory sangria. Read up on the differences between the bullfight sections here.

The bullring has two main levels - Tendido (lower-deck) and Andanada (upper-deck). Tendido tickets will place you closer to the action, whereas Andanada tickets are higher up in the arena. Both types of tickets will allow you watch all the action of the bullfight - the main difference is the level of detail. It is common to prefer to be higher up in the arena, especially if you've never been to a bullfight before and would prefer to see the bullfight and blood in less detail.

Logistics

Novillero (beginner matador) bullfights take place on July 5th, the rejones (horseback fights) take place on July 6th, and traditional Spanish bullfights take place on July 7th-14th. During each evening of bullfights, six bulls will be fought and killed. The bulls that run through the streets of Pamplona between July 7-14 are the same bulls that fight in the arena later that same day. Bullfights start at 6:30pm on July 6th-14th, but bullfights on July 5th begin at 8:00pm. Each bullfight lasts around 2.5 hours.
