Pamplona - Running of the Bulls
Where : Northern Spain - Pamplona's annual nine-day festival which honors the city's patron saint, San FermÃn - includes fireworks, parades, music, dances, bullfights, and religious ceremonies.
When : The Pamplona bull run takes place at 8am every morning from 7th to 14th July. Runners must be in the running area by 7.30am.
6 bulls selected from Spain's top breeding ranches run in the daily event, called an encierro. The bulls' route winds 0.8 kilometer through town from an enclosure on Santo Domingo Street to the city's bullring, where each bull fights a matador in the afternoon. The average encierro lasts a mere three minutes. Participants who may be gored or trampled on. Yeah baby !!
