About Plaza del Coso
Plaza del Coso in Peñafiel, part of the Castile and León cultural landscape, is a historic open-air arena and urban plaza designated as a Bien de Interés Cultural since 1999. With approximately 3,500 m2 of footprint (about 75 m by 46 m), this venue hosts traditional bullfighting during the August Fiesta de Nuestra Señora y San Roque and the Descent of the Angel (Bajada del Ángel) at Easter. Spectators view performances from wooden balconies known as guardamalleta around the plaza, rather than a fixed seating chart. The enclosure is easily reached from two streets—the north and the west—providing convenient access for locals and visitors alike.
Whether you’re researching regional culture, planning a visit, or looking to attend a local event, we’ve got you covered with practical details on access, parking, transportation, and nearby hotel and dining options designed to make your trip straightforward and enjoyable.
Plaza del Coso remains a vibrant cultural space in Peñafiel, actively hosting community events and celebrations.
