PLAZA DE TORROS
The Coliseo Balear, called “Plaza de Torros” by locals, was built in 1929. The magnificent structure was modeled after the famous Coliseum in Rome and is filled with glorious arches that stretch the whole way around the structure. Bullfighting is still practiced here between the months of March and October. Due to the gradual loss of audience, the bullfighting program has been reduced to three or four fights during the summer, usually held at night, when the lighting is particularly powerful. Recently, they have started to diversify and now it is also a venue for rock and pop groups. Bands like The Corrs, Simply Red, Jamiroquai, The Cranberries, Joe Cocker, Jennifer Lopez and others have all performed here.
