On Thursday, July 6, San Fermín will begin with ‘El Chupinazo’, but without a doubt the main protagonists of San Fermín are the running of the bulls.
These races through the streets of Pamplona are the real attraction of the San Fermín festivities and the one that arouses the greatest interest worldwide. Its origin is medieval, but the route that is currently carried out dates from the end of the 18th century, and consists of 848.6 meters between the corrals of Santo Domingo and the Plaza de Toros.
As every year, the running of the bulls will take place from July 7 to 14 and will begin at eight in the morning, and will last between two and three minutes approximately, if everything goes according to plan.
They will be followed by RTVE’s La1, in the hands of donostierra runner Teo Lázaro, and Julian Lantzi’s Ana Prada, who repeat for the second year in a row.
