Pamplona, Fiesta and the Running of the Bulls

Your English-Language Guide to Pamplona, Fiesta and the Running of the Bulls

Meet the 2016 edition of the official guide to Pamplona, its celebrated Fiesta and the legendary Running of the Bulls. This one-of-a-kind resource gathers voices seldom brought together: the Mayor of Pamplona, Ernest Hemingway's grandson, Orson Welles's daughter, the only English bullfighter, and the most seasoned American and Spanish bull-runners. There is no other English-language guide to Pamplona quite like it.

The most dangerous event on earth plays out right here — and this guide helps you make sense of it, get ready for it and come through it safely, during Fiesta and after.
