Palma bullring, Historic bullring in Palma de Mallorca, Spain.

The circular structure features four prominent towers at cardinal points and measures 44.5 meters in diameter with a seating capacity of 11,620 spectators.

Architect Gaspar Bennazar designed this Neo-Mudéjar style arena to replace an older bullring from 1865, completing construction for its inauguration on July 21, 1929.

The arena has hosted performances by international musicians including Simply Red, Joe Cocker, Scorpions, Mike Oldfield, and Dire Straits since the decline of traditional bullfighting.

Located on Gaspar Bennasar Avenue, the facility includes multiple food outlets, bars, parking spaces, and benefits from nearby public transportation connections.

German television network broadcasts the popular show 'Wetten, dass..?' from this venue during summer months, reaching audiences across Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.
