Plaza Nuevo Progreso

The Plaza Nuevo Progreso arena features circular tiers of seating with a capacity of 16,561 spectators surrounding the central sand-covered performance ring.

The bullring opened on February 4, 1967, with six bulls from José Julián Llaguno's ranch, fought by matadors Joselito Huerta, Raúl Contreras, and Manolo Martínez.

The arena preserves Mexican bullfighting traditions through regular corridas while also hosting music concerts and professional wrestling entertainment throughout the year.

Visitors can purchase tickets directly at the venue's box office, located at the main entrance, or through authorized vendors in downtown Guadalajara.

Architect José Manuel Gómez Vázquez Aldana designed the structure combining functional elements with traditional Mexican architectural features in reinforced concrete.
