Plaza de toros Raúl Dávalos de la Calle, Bullring in Riobamba, Ecuador.

The Plaza de toros Raúl Dávalos de la Calle is a bullring in Riobamba with wooden grandstands and covered seating areas that can hold up to 13,000 spectators. The venue was designed specifically for traditional bullfighting events and cultural performances.

The ring was inaugurated in 1952 by the bullfighters Morenito de Valencia and Lorenzo Pascual "Belmonteño". Built with wooden stands and a roof over the seating, it initially held 5,000 spectators. Renovation work carried out from 1995, adding facilities and expanding capacity, led to its reopening in 1997.

The ring hosts the city's most important bullfighting events during the annual Señor del Buen Suceso Fair, when Riobamba dedicates itself entirely to this spectacle. These celebrations shape community life and connect traditional practices with local pride.

The building is located at the intersection of Avenida Daniel León Borja and Avenida Miguel Ángel León in the city center. The venue opens only for scheduled bullfighting events and cultural shows, so it is best to check ahead.

Riobamba earned prestige less from individual matadors than from how correctly the bulls are presented in the ring, a detail that gives the event seriousness and standing. The municipal decree naming it Bullfighting Capital of Ecuador followed this reputation, and the November fair was added after the title was granted.
