The plaza de toros de Las Ventas (often shortened to Las Ventas) is a famous bullring located in Madrid, Spain.

Situated in the Guindalera quarter of the district of Salamanca, it was inaugurated on June 17, 1931. It has a seating capacity of 23,798.

This bullring was designed by the architect José Espeliú in the Neo-Mudéjar (Moorish) style with ceramic incrustations. The seats are situated in ten “tendidos”. The price of the seats depends upon how close they are to the arena and whether they are in the sun or the shade (the latter being more expensive). The bullfighting season starts in March and ends in October; bullfights are held every day during the San Isidro Fiesta, and every Sunday or holiday during the season. Bullfights start at 6 or 7pm and last for two to three hours.

“Las Ventas” is located in the east of Madrid.

From 1913 to 1920, bullfighting gained such a momentum that Madrid’s former main bullring at the Carretera de Aragón was not big enough. It was José Gómez Ortega “Joselito” who complained about the necessity of a new “monumental” bullring, to open this part of Spain’s heritage and culture to the whole city of Madrid. Architect José Espeliú (friend of Joselito) began to work on the project.

Las Ventas bullring is open during all year for cultural visits under the name of Las Ventas Tour. Tour includes an audioguide translated into 10 languages and the visit of the bullring and its bullfighting museum.
