San Fermín

San Fermín is an annual festival in Pamplona, Spain, celebrated from July 6 to 14. It honors Saint Fermín, the city's co-patron saint, and is famous worldwide for the “Encierro,” or running of the bulls, where participants run in front of a live bull herd through city streets. The event combines traditional religious processions, cultural festivities, music, dance, and fireworks. It attracts thousands of visitors who enjoy a mix of adrenaline, historical customs, and vibrant community spirit. While lively and energetic, it also involves inherent risks due to the running of the bulls.
