I just got back from a trip to Spain with my partner. Part of the trip involved going to San Firmines which is the festival in Pamplona where they run the bulls through the streets each morning.

The atmosphere was mental. A real crazy place!

Here are a few photos and videos....

Pints of Sangria


Obviously you have to wear the uniform of the fiesta!


People waiting to run with the bulls!


Closest I was allowed to get


A video I took from our balcony spot overlooking the run:

If you get the chance to go to this then do it! It's a 10 day long 24 hour party, it seriously never stops! The Spanish know how to party!

Bought the shirt and trousers from Matalan as they normally get trashed as there is shit loads of wine/sangria thrown around

Bought the 2 scarf things from a shop in the next village over from Pamplona before we got there.

They instinctively travel in the direction of spam banter.
