For the "Feria Goyesca de Pedro Romero" the participants dress up in the traditional 18th-19th century costume of the bull ring. For men, "snug" might better describe the outfits - black trousers, short grey jackets and an immaculate, broad brimmed hat.

Before the bullfight there is a costume parade with horse-drawn carriages, through the town and ending at Ronda's historic bull ring, in the middle of the arena
