First of all, I have to admit that bullfighting is one of the best known tradition, although at the same time, one of the most polemical Spanish popular customs. The younger generation of spaniards believe bullfighting is cruel to animals. Many of them think that it's a barbaric and old-fashioned tradition. ( and should be banned.)

P.S. In my opinion, the best thing would be to make the bullfighting like in Portugal or the south of France. (without killing the bulls at the end of every bullfight.)

Nowadays, according a recent survey, 72% of Spaniards are NOT interested in bullfight, and as previous post puts is, this interest decreases with age, so very few young people like it.

In some territories, namely the Canary Islands and Catalonia (capital Barcelona) bullfight is banned, and in others like Galicia and Asturies, there are hardly any fights held due to lack of interest. However, in Madrid, Castile, Aragon and especially Andalusia, they are rather popular.

Around 30% of the population like it. That's about 15 million people.

It is very popular in much of Spain. Remember Pamplona is up north!

Most of us don't like it. In my opinion it's not culture or tradition, it's barbarism and animal cruelty.
