About Plaza de Toros Nuevo Progreso

About Plaza de Toros Nuevo Progreso

Plaza de Toros Nuevo Progreso is a 15,000-spectator bullring built in 1967 and inaugurated on October 20, 1979. Its location in Colonia Monumental puts the venue in Guadalajara’s wider urban street network.

Bullfights are generally held throughout the year, usually at 16:30 on Sundays and some holidays. Treat that as a broad pattern rather than a confirmed schedule: individual event listings are the place to verify what is happening on a particular date.

How do you check events and ticket details?

Espectáculos Monterrey (EMSA) publishes event listings with dates, times, venue location and ticket-sale information. Start with the listing for the event you have in mind, then follow its sales details to the relevant ticket channel.

Ticket arrangements can vary by event, so confirm the sale method and any box-office details on the event listing before setting out. For current schedules and ticket arrangements, check the official site before you go; use EMSA for event announcements and Superboletos for listings sold through that platform.

How do you get to the arena from the historic centre?

How do you get to the arena from the historic centre?

In the venue area, public-transport routes run along three main roads and connecting local streets, according to a Guadalajara urban-development plan.

If you’re planning to use local transit, the Guadalajara public transport guide covers the city’s metro, stations and local connections.

The urban-development plan notes that traffic and parking can become congested during event times, so allow flexibility in your arrival plans.

Guadalajara's event venues also include Estadio Jalisco, with its own guide to getting there for a match or event.

What should you plan for on event day?

What should you plan for on event day?

Build your arrival plan around the event’s published details rather than assuming box-office or parking arrangements are the same for every date. On-site parking costs MXN 30–50, depending on the event; event-time congestion can affect the approach to the arena.

Before leaving, confirm the event time, ticket-sale channel and any box-office arrangements with the relevant operator. That keeps the practical details tied to your specific event rather than relying on a general schedule.
