The Art of Bloodless Bullfighting... Portuguese & Azorean Style... in California Ranch Cardoso - Original Bloodless Bullfighting Home
These are your basic "DO's and DONT's

Ok, I'm not going to tell you how to be yourself, but you must understand that there are common "etiquette" behaviors while being at a bullfight.

Here's a few simple and basic rules.

  • ALWAYS stay seated during a performance.
    • The bulls get easily distracted and when they see people in the audience moving around, they tend to focus on them instead of the bullfighter
  • Be QUIET!
    • Ok, I understand some of you are new at this, but keep the noise level to a minimum. It's not only disrespectful to the performers, but it can also quite annoy the person next to you.
  • OLE'!
    • o·lé  - interj. - Used to express excited approval.
    • So, when you see something you like, it is common practice to say "Ole!"
    • This also encourages the performers to do well for you.
    • Just remember, they are performing for you and want only their best to come out.
    • So, the more supportive and excited you are, the more exciting it will be.
  • Don't block the walkways
    • Not only is it distracting, but you are blocking the entrances and exits of the arenas.
    • It's very unsafe and against the fire codes.
  • Do not go inside the arenas
    • Unless the bullfight is officially over, PLEASE DO NOT go inside the arenas.
    • I saw this recently, and I thought it was the rudest thing that people can do to disrespect a performer
    • Every performer takes their walk around the arena, this allows the people to show their gratitude and appreciation for a job well-done.
    • Don't go inside while he's taking his walk..... it's so rude and disrespectful.
    • Take your photos afterwards. The arena is for him, not for you.
  • Finally.... Enjoy, have fun, be merry!
  • I'll list more later.
