Ávila bullring

The Plaza de Toros de Ávila is a circular arena with tiered seating arranged in multiple levels, designed to accommodate approximately 8,500 spectators during events. The structure follows the traditional layout of Spanish bullrings with covered sections, open areas, and different viewing positions based on sun exposure and proximity to the ring.

This arena opened in 1967 and established itself as a purpose-built venue for Spanish bullfighting traditions in the city. Since its opening, it has served as a key fixture in the local events calendar.

This bullring maintains traditional Spanish bullfighting practices through regular events that showcase the skills of matadors and the power of bulls.

The venue sits centrally in the city and is accessible on foot from the old town area. Visitors should wear comfortable clothing and bring water, particularly for summer events when sun exposure is significant.

The bullring transforms into a central gathering space during local festivities, connecting generations through shared experiences of Spanish bullfighting traditions.
