Bull running is a traditional event where participants run through closed streets ahead of charging bulls. The activity is most commonly associated with historic festivals and is typically organised under strict local controls.

ActivitySure can cover bull running when youre taking part abroad on an amateur basis. Due to the unpredictable behaviour of animals and the confined environments involved, bull running carries a very high level of risk, so its essential to ensure your travel insurance is suitable before participating.

Destination Insight

Where is popular to go bull running?

Bull running is most famously linked to Pamplona in northern Spain during the San Fermn festival. Similar events may also take place in smaller towns across Spain as part of traditional celebrations. While these festivals attract visitors from around the world, many travellers choose to experience them as spectators rather than participants due to the inherent risks involved.

Here's why bull running insurance matters:

Bull running involves close proximity to large, fast-moving animals within narrow streets. Collisions, falls and trampling injuries can occur quickly and may result in serious harm. Having appropriate travel insurance in place helps protect you financially if you require emergency medical treatment or assistance while abroad.

Helpful travel tips

Stay alert at all times and remain aware of escape routes.
Keep a safe distance from barriers and avoid standing in confined areas.
Never attempt to outrun the bulls or take unnecessary risks.
Do not take part if you feel unwell, fatigued or under the influence of alcohol.Always follow the instructions provided by event organisers and local authorities and adhere to any safety recommendations made.
