SAN FERMIN – the Running of the Bulls Fiestas

Category : Food and Wine, Friends, Lifestyle... The way we live, Made for Spain, Spain

San Fermin Festival is without any doubt the wildest and most fun festival in Europe and maybe in the world. The amazingly festive atmosphere and the way pamplonicas (locals) party has to be seen to be believed!! The Festival begins on the 6th at 12 Noon with El Chupinazo (an amazing opening ceremony) then the fiesta runs non-stop through the midnight on July 14th

The Running of the Bulls (the encierro –enclosing–) takes place in Pamplona from July 7th to the 14th at 8 AM each morning from and it lasts around 3 minutes at the most. It is how locals take the bulls for the evening bullfight from outside of the city to the bullring.

Even though the festival is famous for this unusual event, it is only a small part of the fest, something guests really only want to watch it once or twice. It is free to run, if guests want to take the risk but we, at Made for Spain, strongly discourage this. We have the best balconies in the city for seeing the running of the bull so that our clients enjoy the fiesta with no risk.

If interested in San Fermin fiesta or having clients willing to enjoy it please make sure you contact us at Made for Spain so that we can guarantee the ultimate travel experience in San Fermin www.madeforspain.com
