Bullring of Fuengirola

About

Fuengirola Bullring (Plaza de Toros de Fuengirola (Spanish)) is a 3rd category bullring and cultural center located in Fuengirola, a coastal town in the province of Málaga, part of the autonomous community of Andalusia, Spain. Originally built for bullfighting, it has been repurposed as a cultural center.

The Fuengirola Bullring was inaugurated on 8 July 1962, featuring bullfighters César Girón, Manuel Segura, and José Martínez "Limeño". In 2012, the bullring underwent a major renovation, adding a commercial area and accessibility improvements, and was reinaugurated on 6 October with bullfighters El Cordobés, El Fandi, and Juan José Padilla, with bulls from Benjumea.

In February 2023, the bullring was purchased for €4.5 million by a Swedish investment group led by entrepreneur Marc Skarman through Arena Solo Málaga SL. After over two years of renovations, the plaza reopened in May 2025 with new facilities, including a theater, restaurant, art gallery, and event spaces.

The Fuengirola Bullring no longer hosts regular bullfights. However, it maintains an agreement with the local bullfighting school, allowing classes twice a week in the arena.
