Festejo taurino de rejoneo con Diego Ventura

📍 Plaza de toros de El Bibio, Gijón · View on map

El Bibio bullring hosts a rejoneo (mounted bullfighting) event as part of the 2026 Feria de Begoña, with Portuguese rider Diego Ventura as guest of honour, alongside Duarte Fernandes and Javier Funtanet, who will take his alternativa that evening. Bulls from the Los Espartales ranch will be fought in a gala bill that Ventura says comes at 'the best moment' of his career, with a stable of seasoned and young horses that, he explains, let him ride the bold, expressive style that has won over Asturian crowds in past fairs. As the rider himself puts it, Gijón is a special ring: 'the crowd is respectful, very dignified, and knows how to value a torero's effort.' A date for bullfighting enthusiasts within the Feria de Begoña programme.
