Spring 2026 archive. The May and June dates previously promoted on this page have passed. This article retains documented programme information and corrects the old ticket promotion. It is not a list of tickets currently available.
What the official programme announced
The Las Ventas announcement dated 5 February placed the start of San Isidro on 8 May. For the dates highlighted in our earlier guide, the programme listed:
- 9 May: a bullfight featuring La Quinta bulls, not a novillada.
- 14 May: a bullfight featuring El Parralejo bulls.
- 22 May: Victoriano del Río and Toros de Cortés.
- 28 May: the Corrida de la Prensa.
- 7 June: the In Memoriam event.
- 14 June: the Beneficencia event.
These are details of the announced programme, not an eyewitness account of the performances. Confirming substitutions or cancellations requires the relevant later announcement.
What has been corrected
The earlier version misidentified the 9 May event and was unclear about 14 June. It also treated an intermediary as an official sales channel, promised authenticity without adequate evidence and dismissed the box office as a practical option. Those claims have been removed. A commercial link does not establish authorization, availability or the terms of a ticket.
Planning another visit
Start with the venue calendar and check the year, date, time and event type. Follow the ticket link from the official Las Ventas website. When using another seller, identify the business you are contracting with and compare the final cost and delivery conditions.
For seating, record the section, level, row and any disclosed view restrictions. Do not infer comfort or included services from a label such as “premium”. Ask about step-free access or adjacent seats before paying if these are essential, and retain the written response.
Common questions
