The matador Borja Jiménez has been forced to cancel his historic enclosure on October 13th in Bilbao due to an injury to his left hand. The Bilbao Bullfighting Club is already working on rescheduling the festival for the spring of 2025.
Bilbao ends the year with the festival of the Bullfighting Club, a celebration that in its 67th edition presents an unprecedented lineup. Never before has a single matador been announced to fight alone. Borja Jiménez makes history at Vista Alegre, entering the arena with the confidence of making it again when the event is over.
Bilbao combines history and modernity in a vibrant setting. From the charming Old Town to the iconic Guggenheim Museum, the city offers a rich cultural and architectural experience. With outstanding gastronomy and a unique atmosphere, it is a must-see destination in northern Spain.
On 13th October, Borja Jiménez will make history in Bilbao as he faces six bulls alone in the traditional charity festival organised by the Excmo. Club Taurino, in support of the Casa de Misericordia. This unprecedented challenge, marking a first in the 67-year history of the event, coincides with the 250th anniversary of the emblematic Bilbaína institution, and will close an extraordinary season for the Sevillian matador, who was the star of the 2024 Corridas Generales.
