Tickets Corrida Extraordinaria 150th Anniversary La Malagueta 22 August | Morante, Roca Rey, David de Miranda
On Saturday the 22nd of August at 7 pm, the Plaza de Toros La Malagueta celebrates the most important taurine event in its recent history: the Corrida de Toros Extraordinaria marking the 150th Anniversary of La Malagueta. One hundred and fifty years of history, art, passion, and raw emotion are honoured with the greatest bill that could possibly have been assembled: Morante de la Puebla, Roca Rey, and David de Miranda, with three bulls from Torrealta and three from Garcigrande. This is an afternoon that the people of Málaga — and of all Spain — will carry with them for the rest of their lives.
La Malagueta is one of the great temples of universal bullfighting. Inaugurated in 1876 and declared a Site of Cultural Interest, its stunning neo-Mudéjar architecture, its extraordinary history, and the unique atmosphere generated by its passionate public make it one of the most special venues in the entire taurine world. To celebrate its 150th anniversary with a bill of this magnitude is the tribute that a living monument of Spanish cultural heritage truly deserves.
Morante de la Puebla is the genius. The most complete, most profound, and most impossible-to-categorise artist that bullfighting has produced in the last thirty years. When Morante is inspired — and in a corrida of this importance, he will be — what happens in the ring transcends sport and becomes pure art of the very highest order. His muletazos are poetry in motion, his verónicas stop time itself, and his utterly unique way of interpreting the bull makes every one of his afternoons an unrepeatable event. Roca Rey is the force of nature from Peru who has conquered Spanish bullfighting with an intensity, commitment, and breathtaking courage that electrifies every crowd he faces. Málaga already knows what Roca Rey at his best looks and feels like — pure emotion unleashed. David de Miranda is the delightful revelation of the season, the torero who has grown most impressively in recent months, arriving at this corrida in the finest form of his career and absolutely ready to prove that he belongs alongside two of the sport’s greatest names.
The Torrealta and Garcigrande ranches guarantee a fighting stock of the very highest quality — serious, well-presented bulls with the caste and bravery needed for three espadas to write history together on this most special of Málaga evenings.
There is no more valuable ticket in the entire Feria de Agosto de Málaga 2026. The 150th anniversary of La Malagueta happens only once. Buy your tickets right now before it is too late. This is the corrida of the century in Málaga — do not miss it!
