Birthplace of The Bull Runners: Pamplona, Spain
| March 21, 2016
Travel Tips
Even if you aren’t interested in running with the bulls, there are plenty of other things to do in Pamplona during the festival. Rockets are launched every day, with an especially glorious pyrotechnic display to celebrate the opening day. Other events, like the parade of the Saint Fermin statue through the streets, celebrate the saint in a much less aggressive way. There are also bull fights every night, in addition to exhibitions of sports, dancing, parades, and fireworks that take place every day of the festival.
