The festivities of Sant Sebastià de Xàbia once again celebrate their traditional 'bous al carrer' after three years

January 21 from 2023 - 00: 23

Since 2019, the Plaza de la Iglesia and Plaça de Baix have not had the traditional bullfighting session. After three years of hiatus due to storm Gloria and the situation of the coronavirus pandemic, the festivities in honor of the patron saint of Xàbia, Sant Sebastià have once again felt the festive atmosphere.

The music, the gunpowder, the joy and of course, els bous al carrer, have filled the historic center of Xàbia and in particular, the surroundings of the Church of St. Bartholomew.

The first bullfighting session of yesterday Friday afternoon had a great atmosphere and public. The surroundings of the Church were, and will be, during this weekend, the meeting point and the center of the local festival dedicated to the patron saint.

    You have to seek the vote of the brainless who need an aberrational distraction like this to stay in a municipal government that can only boast of satisfying this type of people who only think about revelry, parties and events like this. It is evident that prohibiting these acts, although it pains us to say it, would be political suicide, which indicates the cultural and moral level of the electorate at all levels.

    I visited Javea as a tourist and I loved it but seeing this barbarism disappoints me, and I don't want to return, how can they allow this to happen, who authorizes this heartbreaking event to take place with children watching, what a shame

  3. Sebastián says:

    A shame the level of brutism there is.
    NO TO ANIMAL ABUSE.
    And I am neither red, nor vegan, nor podemita.
    I am Spanish and from Jávea and I am ashamed that such brutality is done in my town.
    Stop torturing an animal, it's crazy

    little bunch of sick...
    leave the bulls alone bizarre

  5. Impossible to follow this says:

    What a bestiality.
    I'm not red, I'm not red, I'm Spanish and that seems to me a demeaning savage, for the animal and those who enjoy these brutal parties.
    What an infinite shame.
    It's pathetic.

  6. neighbor says:

    I just saw the photo report, I'm very sad. I am very ashamed of my People, that they are so beasts hurts me.

    It is an embarrassing spectacle, a real savage.

    Poor animal, how humiliating and sad all this.

    It is very sad that this continues to happen, that many of you see it as normal, that this continues.

  7. Vecino says:

    Every time there are bulls they come out to criticize.
    It is worth more that they criticize the lack of employment and the neglect of this municipality by a government incapable of drawing up budgets.
    It is incredible that they feed on a poor animal that is created by man for this purpose.
    Nobody remembers the caged birds or the locked up reptiles or the animals that die when there is a forest fire or the dogs on the balconies or terraces barking and bothering all the neighbors.
    Only when they see a bull created by man for enjoyment there, if they want to stop the abuse, you know what? If the bull is not taken out to a bullring right now, as many want, it would no longer exist. If the bull does not give money, it does not eat, and if it does not eat, there is no bull, what many animalists want, that they all become extinct.
    If an animal lover wants to adopt them at home, there are many wild animals that want to be adopted, but it is better if they are in a well-cared for open field with plenty of food and without suffering as farmers now have.

      »animals created by men for the enjoyment»…..of men of course……
      "If the bull were not used for this, it would no longer exist"…..we have already extinguished the bull right off the bat because we couldn't find a use for it…..
      We are left over with Ego.
      And all to defend another party of the many that are celebrated to keep people entertained and not think too much. Those who go with the swollen ego.
      Anyway……

    • laura says:

      Agonizing way of living yours.
      I don't want it.
      Exhausting his lessons for everything.
      No to animal abuse, despite making my request uncomfortable.

  8. Leo Carvallal says:

    Please, someone stop this barbarity.
    It is totally discouraging that today it is done is wild.
    Enough of doing this to the poor animals.
    Don't you have a conscience?
    It's terrible, gratuitous suffering and people allow it, it's incredible.
    No more suffering please!

  9. Mapi says:

    Wann hört endlich diese Tierquälerei auf? Das hat nichts mit Tradition zu tun, das ist reine Tierquälerei……..Jeder sollte sich schämen da mitzumachen……..

  10. Simon says:

    I don't think it's right that animals continue to be mistreated.
    I find it somewhat outdated, very cruel.
    Hopefully one day we will have a popular vote on this issue, it seems to me something so aberrational that I don't understand how to combat it.
    A horror.
