San Fermines, better known as the Running of the Bulls, is one of the most famous festivals in the world and has attracted people to the north of Spain ever since Hemingway spread the word about this one of a kind event. The festival is held 45 minutes southeast of San Sebastian in Pamplona, the capital of Navarra, and will run from the 6th to the 14th of July. Throughout the event there will be shuttle services to and from San Sebastian.
