Plaza De Toros Mexico Holds First 'Pamplonada' In Its History

This Saturday, more than 300 runners are taking part in a running of the bulls in the Plaza de Toros Mexico, in Mexico City, Mexico, on October 7, 2023, in an event similar to the 'Pamplonada' which is being held for the first time in that venue in the country's capital. According to data from the Plaza de Toros Mexico, this is the first running of the bulls with popular participation recorded in the bullfighting history of the country's capital, which is just five years away from celebrating 500 years since its first bullfight. In contrast, in June 2022, federal judge Jonathan Bass is granting the suspension of bullfighting after an injunction is filed by the civil association Justicia Justa, which considers that the degrading treatment of bulls violates the right to a healthy environment. On the other hand, businessmen of the Plaza Mexico are managing to challenge the decision and it is being revoked for the second time, returning bullfighting to the capital on Sunday, January 28. According to a poll by the agency Parametria, 73% of Mexicans are rejecting bullfighting. (Photo by Gerardo Vieyra/NurPhoto)
