Bilbao, Spain — Events
San Fermin (Running of the Bulls)
The annual festival honoring Saint Fermin is most famous for its Running of the Bulls, which takes place every morning throughout the celebrations. Ernest Hemmingway brought the festival to world attention with his novel The Sun Also Rises, and millions of brave visitors have since ventured to join in the all-day-and-night merriment.
O Grove Seafood Festival
Come October, the north-western province of Spain grows (as does its reputation) into the place to be for seafood in Europe. Hundreds of thousands come by to enjoy the succulent flavors and delights available.
