Plaza de toros de Tudela, Bullring in the Griseras neighbourhood, Tudela, Spain

The Plaza de Toros de Tudela is a circular bullring with tiered seating that accommodates thousands of spectators. The structure follows the traditional Spanish design with concentric rings surrounding the central arena.

Tudela's first permanent bullring opened on 9 September 1842 and was demolished in 1920. The present ring was inaugurated on 26 July 1933 in the Griseras district, built to echo Pamplona's San Fermín bull runs. For seven decades the Chopera family managed it; Juan Luis Ruiz ran it until 2025, when Enrique Luján's Tauro Luján took over.

Locals call it "La Chata de Griseras", after the Griseras neighbourhood where it was built in 1933. The July fair of Santiago and Santa Ana fills it with encierros at 8 a.m., followed by free morning capeas of emboladas cows, more capeas from 6:30 p.m. and bullfights without killing for minors.

The best time to visit is during the July festivities when the arena is fully active. Visitors should check ahead, as the venue may have limited access outside the main event season.

The venue is known locally as La Chata de Griseras and once served as a changing facility for an adjacent stadium. This dual purpose connects the site to the local sports history in an unexpected way.
