Why You Should Attend the San Juan Bullfighting Fair in Badajoz
Because there’s nothing quite like it. The San Juan Fair is more than just bullfighting — it’s the heartbeat of summer in Extremadura, the time when Badajoz dresses up for its most passionate celebration.
The Pardaleras Arena fills to capacity for a programme that usually includes two or three major bullfights: a traditional corrida, a rejoneo (bullfighting on horseback), and a novillada showcasing the future stars of bullfighting, many of them born right here in Extremadura.
Held around 24 June, the fair attracts both Spanish and Portuguese fans who cross the border just to witness the paseíllo, the ceremony, and the emotion of a bullring that breathes passion and respect for the art of bullfighting.
Live an unforgettable experience at the San Juan Fair — Badajoz awaits you.
