The Bullring in Estepona, constructed in 1972, serves as more than just a venue for traditional bullfights. While it does host approximately 17 bullfighting events annually, its multifaceted role extends far beyond this.

Throughout the summer months, the bullring transforms into an open-air concert venue, drawing both local and international talent. In the past, renowned bands such as Kool and the Gang, Boney M, and ELO have graced the stage here, making it a hot spot for music enthusiasts during the summer season.

Notably, the bullring also houses three captivating museums that add to its cultural appeal. The first museum is dedicated to the rich history of bullfighting, providing insights into the centuries-old tradition. The second museum showcases a fascinating collection of antique farming and fishing tools, offering a window into the region's agricultural and maritime heritage. The third museum is a treasure trove for fossil enthusiasts, displaying an array of prehistoric specimens.

A remarkable aspect of these museums is that they are all free to enter, making the bullring an educational and entertaining destination for those interested in the diverse cultural facets of Estepona. Whether you're drawn to the excitement of bullfights, the rhythms of live music, or the allure of museums, the Bullring in Estepona offers a well-rounded cultural experience for visitors of all tastes.
