San Fermin Running of the Bulls, Pamplona

The festival of San Fermin is by far the best known event taking place in Pamplona. Every year from July 7th-14th thousands pack into Pamplona to start Spain's most famous bull-running fiesta to honour Navarre capital's patron saint, San Fermin. The bull run is the most well known act of the Sanfermines and the reason why so many strangers want to come to Pamplona during these celebrations. The bull running consists of running along certain stretches of the streets which have been previously walled off, and the aim of which is to take six bulls from the Santo Domingo corrals to the Bull Ring.
