2027 line-ups awaiting announcement
Information as of .
The presentation is planned for January 2027, with no exact day or official line-ups announced. Seville’s fair at the Real fairground will take place from 13 to 18 April. The 2026 line-ups appear below as the previous edition.
Presentation in January, with the exact date still to be set
Garzón plans a large presentation with room for season-ticket holders and is considering the Cartuja Center. The earlier announcement is intended to help people organise their travel: Easter Sunday will fall on 28 March.
Morante: the hope for Easter Sunday
Garzón hopes to have Morante de la Puebla back in 2027 and has him in mind for Easter Sunday. He clarifies that he has not yet agreed plans for the coming season with him; the line-up remains open.
Diego Ventura: keen to reach an agreement
The promoter wants to book Diego Ventura, whom he places at the very top of mounted bullfighting. He recalls trying to book him for the previous season, without reaching an agreement.
José Tomás: willing to make it happen, with no confirmation
He also wants to include José Tomás in the line-up. Garzón, who previously booked him in Algeciras and Granada, will make himself available to him and acknowledges that his appearance does not depend solely on the promoter.
Changes to the breeders and plans for novilladas
He outlines changes to the breeders and a new development yet to be revealed. He will wait for reports from his bull-selection scouts and visit the breeding ranches before making a decision. He also wants novilladas of the highest standard.

Spring bullfighting at the Maestranza
The Easter Sunday bullfight traditionally opens Seville’s season. The Feria de Abril follows, then novilladas with picadors and the Corpus bullfight in May and June. The other major season-ticket event is San Miguel in September.
The dates of the Real fairground celebrations do not alone define the Maestranza's bullfighting programme. The Seville season ticket usually includes events before fair week, as well as the Easter Sunday bullfight. The dates of each 2027 bullfight, the bullfighters and the breeders will be known when the official programme is presented.
Bullfighters and breeders at the last April Fair
In 2026, Morante de la Puebla, Roca Rey and David de Miranda opened the season on Easter Sunday with Garcigrande bulls. The April programme included the two-man contest between Manuel Escribano and Borja Jiménez with Victorino Martín bulls, and ended with the Miura corrida for Escribano, Pepe Moral and Román.
Juan Ortega, Pablo Aguado, Daniel Luque, José María Manzanares and Alejandro Talavante also appeared on the April 2026 bills. The bullfighters and breeding ranches for 2027 have not yet been confirmed.
Tickets and television
Ticket sale dates and broadcasts for 2027 have not been announced either. Box office information is published on Lances Maestranza. El archivo de Seville brings together the appearances and videos available from the bullring.
