Bull Running in Pamploma

The Davestator

Has anyone gone to this festival and if so, any tips. Im deciding whether to go on a 5 day coach and camp trip or rent a car.

the company who do the coach trip are PP travel - has anyone ever had any dealings with them.

cheers!

Went last year but we stayed in a room of an apartment through a crowd called the pamplona posse. Its balcony looked onto the festivals main square. Had a great laugh, best piss up ever. Make sure to be there for the opening ceremony.

I wouldn't bring a car to one of the worlds premier pissups, coach and camp sounds good. It's years since I was there but it was brilliant. Enjoy!

Trouble with the location is the party is 24hrs and you have brass bands going past all night. We just drank for 4 days straight and walked upstairs whenever we needed to and collapsed for 2 hrs or so. Being in the crowd in the square is by far the best part. We were pretty much drunk, soaked and ping (sangria fights) a good hour before it started. Was amazing. Unbelievable crush though, wouldnt recomend for girls. Saw a few being passed overhead after fainting. I spent a good half hour without even my feet touching the ground in the crush with my two hands clutching my bottles of Sangria.
