    A little more English explaining bull fighting terminology would have been very useful. If you're an advocate of animal rights don't go! A small museum but "perfectly formed" and best of all , it's FREE!😊

    Great venue, it was very full but efficient in and out. If you are on standard seats go to loo before you get to seat because hard to get out once its full. Only slight issue you cannot take your own aluminium ( and prob plastic) bike type water bottles in, and if you want to still go in you have to bin them at security. Normal clear plastic ones are ok without lids. Check before you go

    Free of charge and possible to go inside the arena as well. You can also enter the museum in the back entrance. Costumes, articles and bull heads on the walls of 100m hallway museum. Rather this than actual bull fights, seemed like a very cruel 'sport', glad there are efforts to ban it completely.

    Went to see Tom Jones..Great show...if you go to this venue be sure to take a cushion and fan..seating very uncomfortable if you don't have a ticket that is seated in chairs... Mobile toilets outside....clean but lacking toilet paper. No running water...but machine with hand sanatiser outside toilet..if you bring small water bottle..they remove the cap before entry...in some case the water bottle to..had good views went August so very hot..no through breeze as such..but being a old bull ring it is what it is...hope this information helps

    Interesting place to visit purely based on the quintessential fact it's part of Spanish culture. Free entry to the ring and museum which is filled with many historical artifacts. Will definitely make you reflect on the whole thing once you've been inside.

    Joel was our tour guide and he was great...knowledgeable and fun. Definitely worth a visit. The only reason I gave 4 stars is that I would have liked the tour to last another 30 minutes.

    Been here to watch 2 concerts. Carlos Santana 5 years ago and Tom Jones 1st July this year. Both fantastic sound, lighting and effects.

    We went there to see Tom Jones in concert. Great venue to see live acts. All the seats had a good view of the stage.

    Went with mum to learn about bull ring fighting with my mum. However the guy that was our tour guide was not very easy to understand at all. His English needs alot of improvements please

    The Bullring is open at different times. Christmas it changes, this year it's an ice rink. Other years you can walk around the Christmas market. It is worth a look. It is part of history. Outside is lovely.

    Corrida is worth to see once, a bloody, terrifying but mesmerizing show

    we were a family of three, everything was super, the owner is a decent person, no problems, it was clean and comfortable, everything is close to the beach and a supermarket. When we left the owner helped us and ordered us a taxi) I recommend it to everyone. Great place to stay

    Museum entrance is from the yard, it is free to enter and has small movie playing at the end of the hall. Overall worth a visit even if you don't know Spanish (as all the writings are only in Spanish)

    Wouldn't want to visit here, for it's originally intended purpose 😀😀, but attended the Bob Dylan concert here, on June 15th. It is an incredibly atmospheric venue for concerts, with wonderful acoustics. Highly recommended !!!

    Walking around looking for somewhere to eat in Alicante isn't difficult with so many options but with 10 tapas for €30 as the headline, thought it would be worth a shot. The tapas comes with a set menu with a variety from the meats, fish and vegetable tapas options. The food all came out on one sharing platter which was great. The food was OK however. Not bad, not great. Just OK!

    Fascinating, no entrance fee but double check the opening times. Worthwhile a visit.

  • 2/5 Maery B. 2 years ago on Google
    Really small, no english at all, not even a leaflet, couldnt visit inside the arena...? Mayne i did something wrong.

  • 5/5 Márton B. 1 year ago on Google
    Did not worked when we visited, but acted as a museum.

  • 3/5 Grzegorz F. 6 years ago on Google
    It is worth to see the arena of corrida from the architectural point of view, because it is nice inside. But the museum of corrida it is completely not for me, because of my opposition to this kind of entertainment. And by the way museum is rather poor with exhibits.

    Great bit of history. Great that we could go inside the actual ring to get an idea what is was like. Free to get in aswell
