Visit: Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas, Calle de Alcala 237, 28028 Madrid SpainWelcome to Las Ventas Bullring, considered the Bullfighting Cathedral. The most important bullring in the world. The one which gives everything and takes everything away. The biggest reward for those who manage to leave through its Puerta Grande and a challenge for those who hardly think about it.Las Ventas Bullring was built in 1929 on the land called Las Ventas del Espíritu Santo, to which it owes its name. It is the largest bullring in Spain, with a total area of 45,800 square meters and capacity for 23,797 people. Las Ventas Bullring was declared an artistic historical heritage in 1994. The biggest event that houses the Las Ventas Bullring is undoubtedly the San Isidro Fair, one of the events which has consolidated it as the best bullring in the world. Las Ventas Bullring has been designed and built in the Neo Mudejar style. The Neo Mudejar is the most characteristic style of the bullrings in Spain.

Traveler Reviews

Historically important but not ok to the standards of the 21st century. Of course we knew that it is a bullfighting arena but I hoped that the tour would somehow include part of the controversy of the cruelty the animals have to suffer. Unfortunately this was not the case, the tour totally ignored the suffering and did nothing but glorify the Matadors. The arena as worth a visit, the buildings architecture is impressive, but I highly recommend not to waste your money on the tour.

Super visite! L'audio guide nous emmène facilement dans les arènes, je suis pas espagnole et j'ai vraiment tout aimé et l'audio guide en espagnol est facil à entendre et comprendre!!

This was a great and informative tour of a beautiful bullfighting arena. The virtual reality game was a welcome added segment of the tour. The tour finished in the museum to complete all unanswered questions

the show was amazing, full to capacity, everyone on there feet screaming OLE, it was phenomenal, very orderly, when buying tickets ensure you have tickets to see the bullfight not only the guided tour.

We really wanted to be fully imersed in the cultur while visiting Spain. We would have loved to see an actual bullfight , but they are on Sundays & we were due in another town by the weekend. We toured the bullring & enjoyed the self-guided walking tour.
