Bullfight Tickets in Spain
Bullfight tickets vary in price according to their position in the
bullfighting arena. The ones in the shade (sombra) are more expensive than the
ones in the sun (sol).
Some seats are designated as sun and shade (sol y sombra)
because they begin in the sun but move to shade as the afternoon progresses.
Seats located closest to the bullfight are also more expensive than those
near the back. So ones near the ringside barrier (barrera) which are also in the
shade are the most expensive.
Buying tickets at the actual arena can prove a major hassle as it is
difficult to work out which ticket window (taquilla) you should go to and
without a very good level of Spanish it is almost impossible to explain or find
out which tickets you wish to buy.
Just study the poster of the event in advance to decide where you want to sit
then ask for those seats or simply copy the name of the seating area and show it
to the ticket seller.
