Can't say I've ever seen one advertised but then Bullfighting isn't something I'd class as a fun thing to do on holiday (or any other time) so in fairness I wouldn't have been looking for adverts in the first place. Each to their own tho'!

Hi,
I saw an poster last week for the Alcudia arena but have never seen any of the others advertised.
This list may help you,
Steve.

ok thanks for your help. we have never been before not sure if we will just wanted to no.

The Plaza De Toros in Palma is one of the most beautiful buildings in the city, what happens inside is not. I went to a bullfight in Barcelona when I was a stupid boy, I've never been back.

I went to a MOCK BULL FIGHT when I was 10, it was a tiny wee Bull.
I watched it on DVD last year, I am just glad my parents didn't take me to a real Bull Fight.

Plaza de Toros is a fab place in Palma, even better when there is a concert going on - have seen Joe Cocker, Bryan Adams and Status Quo there, but wouldn't go to a bullfight there !

As a follower of the bullfight,yes indeed each to their own.
You wont find much bullfighting in Majorca these days.There are small plazas in Majorca but the main one being in Palma where only 2 corridas took place there last year in August so the chances are there might be 2 more this year.
THere used to be corridas in the summer on most Sundays years back but the world hads become more politically correct and tourist stopped going I suppose.
That said bullfighting is more popular in Spain than it has been for years.Most Spanish towns and cities hold a series of bullfights to co-incide with their own fiestas.
If you are in Majorca in August they will advertise the bullfights and who the matadors will be from around July,they will be adveritised on bullfight web sites.
If you go to see a bullfight you would be advised to go with someone with a bit of knowledge about what happens if this is possible or do a bit of research first.

You may find this interesting in todays Mallorca Daily Bullitin.

Rumours about bullfight are just that: bull
STAFF REPORTER

PALMA
THE Mayor of Felanitx has reassured residents that a bullfight will be held in the town during the Festival of Sant Agusti.
Rumours have been spreading through the town that this year there will be no bullfight in the local bullring. But the Mayor has stated that if this happens, then the bullring will be returned to the council under the original contract of sale. This same document also stipulates that the site cannot be used for any purpose other than a bull ring.

Bullfighting is on the decline and it's supposed to be outlawed in Barcelona.

Live bullfights are no longer aired on Spanish State TV (TVE the equivalent of the BBC), although highlights of the big fiestas like the one in Las Ventas in Madrid and Real Maestranza de Caballeria in Seville, will be aired by the state TV's sister channel after the 8 pm "watershed"....other rival broadcasters in the various regions may continue to air live bullfights, but they have to follow certain broadcasting rules of conduct and these will probably be aired late at night or just the highlights, when most children are in bed.

A poll conducted in 2006, found that 72% of Spaniards had no interest at all in watching bullfights. a similar poll in 1987 revealed that only 46% were not interested in la corrida.
The rising costs of animal feed and rearing the bulls has put many breeders out of business and others in the red. Today they depend on European Union subsidies of €220 a cow a year, plus indirect Spanish government aid for farming, and with the enormous film star wages that the matadors demand, (a bit like the footballers) together these are slowly putting a nail in the coffin of this barbaric event.

How much longer will it go on for.? well, 200,000 people's jobs are on the line, so it's not going to disappear overnight, but with breeders not making any profit, rising costs of breeding/rearing, high prices demanded by matadors, cost of seats at bullrings and the Animal Cruelty campaigners slowly educating the new generation of intellectual Spaniards, and getting the message across that bullfighting is no longer a "good" image to portray of Spain..... Hopefully not too long

Sanjiiiiii

Bullfighting is not outlawed in Barcelona at all,although very few catalans have an interest in bullfighting mainly due to it being classed as Spanish and they not wanting to be associated with that due to their independant attitude.

Bullfighting sold more tickets in the last decade than the one before.

72% have no interest in bullfights yes.The rest are either very interested or have a passing interest.Of course its a known fact that the vast majority of Spaniards have never seen a bullfight,so what - the vast majority of English have never seen a cricket match but its still classed as something very English.Not that I'm infering that bullfighting can be classed as a sport.It's not a sport in Spain.

As I said earlier its a matter of each to their own,I like bullfighting cause I just like watching it.I was merely trying to give some information to a questioner.
