Camargue Bullfighting

Camargue bullfighting, an emblematic tradition of the Camargue region, celebrates the agility and bravery of men facing bulls. Unlike Spanish bullfighting, these events take great care not to harm the animals. The “raseteurs,” dressed in white, must skillfully grab attributes attached to the bulls’ horns. This sport, deeply rooted in local culture, takes place in a festive atmosphere often accompanied by traditional music and dance. Camargue bullfighting continues traditions that have been part of Provence and Camargue for centuries.

The Eyragues arena regularly hosts Camargue bullfighting events.
