Bullring of Dax, Bullfighting arena in Dax, France
The concrete Bullring of Dax stands in Theodore-Denis Park, featuring Moorish and Art Deco architectural elements with a capacity of 8,230 spectators.
Following a fire that destroyed the wooden arena in 1908, architect Albert Pomade designed this permanent structure, which opened its doors in 1913.
The arena hosts traditional bullfighting events during the Dax Festival in August, accompanied by two local bands playing regional music.
The facility includes a chapel for matadors, horse courtyard, and emergency surgical services, making it a complete venue for bullfighting events.
The Bullring of Dax ranks among France's seven first-category arenas, alongside venues in Bayonne, Mont-de-Marsan, Vic-Fezensac, Nimes, Beziers, and Arles.
