Plaza de Toros Real Maestranza (Royal Maestranza Bullring)

Plaza de Toros Real Maestranza (Royal Maestranza Bullring) Review

Sevillanos have spent many a thrilling Sunday afternoon in this bullring, built between 1760 and 1763. Painted a deep ocher, the stadium is the one of the oldest and loveliest plazas de toros in Spain. The 20-minute tour takes in the empty arena, a museum with elaborate costumes and prints, and the chapel where matadors pray before the fight. Bullfights take place in the evening Thursday through Sunday from April through July and in September. Tickets can be booked online or over the phone.
