It never rains to everyone’s liking on the show’s posters. La Magdalena was the first to rise and has already announced the 2026 series, with figures like Roca Rey and revelations like Aarón Palacio. The hand, one of the great promises of … ladder, they will face La Quinta, the cattle ranch which will lead to the fair. Who won’t be there is Antonio Ferrera, who pardoned a Conradi bull during the last edition with a bullfighting lesson. This could well have opened the heads-up between Alejandro Talavante and Juan Ortega (the Sevillian won the prizes at the last fair), a strange duel between the bullfighter who takes over the Madrid business and the one who takes over the Seville one. As Borja Jiménez could have entered it, the most glaring absence since he is one of the winners of 2025. Or missing David de Miranda, author of the most impressive task of his triumphant summer.
Beyond the absences, there are the posters of bulls and bullfighters, each with its nuance, its attraction and its interest:
Sunday March 8. La Quinta bulls for Ginés Marín, Aarón Palacio and Javier Zulueta.
