Some sol seat tickets will be available each day of the fiesta, but you will more than likely have to purchase them through the scalpers, mostly Gypsies that work the area in front of the bullring beginning at around 10:00 am each morning. Expect to pay anywhere from 30 to 200 EUR per ticket depending on the day and the cartel. Tickets on the 7th, the first day of the traditional bullfights, are always difficult to obtain. One thing to remember, since scalping is illegal in Spain, there may be some undercover police in the crowd. If so, then the scalpers will not be selling tickets that day. They know the police and the police know them. It's a game they play throughout Spain during the major bullfighting ferias.
You can order tickets through us, but expect to pay at least 200 Euros for the Andanada sombra (upper level shade) seats and more than 300 Euros for the prime tendido sombra (lower level shade) seats.
Remember, it's feria and it's like going to the NBA or NFL playoffs. These tickets are never available to the general public, but have to be negotiated by our buyer once our order is placed.
The premium tendido sombra tickets were going for 5x's face value for this year's Feria.
By comparison, tickets to see José Tomas, considered by some to be the superstar of matadors, where selling for €1000 each on the internet.
