Running of the Bulls __** When does this occur? **__ Every year from July 7th to the 14th the Pamplona Bull Running festival happens. The first bull run is at 8 a.m. on July 7th.

The festival is to honor the Navarre capital Patron Saint San Fermin.
 * __ Why does this festival happen? __**

The run stretches from a corral at Santo Domingo (where the bulls are kept), to the bullring where the bulls will fight later that afternoon.
 * __ Where does this happen? __**

The run is 825 meters long but only takes about three minuets. The streets are walled off so bulls can't escape and hurt the people watching. Each day of the festival, six fighting bulls run with two herds of bullocks and at eight a.m. a rocket is fired to start the race. Runners dress in all white with a red hankercheif around their necks and pray to San Fermin to keep them safe. When the rocket is shot the people run with the bulls trying not to get injured. This happens everyday of the festival.
