Are you organising a country-style party? Do you know what the latest trend is? Here we give you one of the most fashionable options in recent times: capeas. Organising an outdoor day with nature present is incomparable.
Multi-adventure is the best form of leisure and entertainment
Capeas are one of the best options to enjoy with your friends. You can find countless companies that will ensure you and yours experience an exciting day. Whether you're organising a stag do or just want to relax with your loved ones, have a capea and you'll be making the right decision.
Depending on what you're looking for, you can find estates with just a bullring and a barbecue area for food, but you can also discover others with a restaurant. Farmhouses that host weddings and communions are usually prepared for other celebrations too, such as team building activities or stag parties.

Right, you've found the estate to host your capea. To know it's the right one, you should be comfortable with the facilities, rates and services offered, thus ensuring everything will be to your liking. Some venues have capacity for multiple groups of friends - the decision about exclusivity will be yours. We recommend a private capea, as you'll be able to enjoy the bull-related activities more fully without anyone disturbing you.
It's most advisable to carefully note down the list of all attendees, as this way the organisation will be better and you can communicate clearly with the company owners. The list doesn't need to be 100% reliable, as we know someone might drop out or, conversely, a friend might decide to join last minute. It's simply a way to guide preparations so the party goes perfectly.
Don't know what rules you need to follow?
It's essential to follow certain rules to avoid any mishaps: you'll ensure the activity's success and avoid issues with the estate staff. Important details like those listed below will help the capea run as smoothly as possible:
- Clothing and footwear. This is one of the main points because although it might seem trivial, how you're dressed and shod affects important factors like avoiding bad falls or being caught by the bull or heifer. Don't wear bright colours (never wear red) and wear trainers (never boots, heels or shoes that aren't properly secured to your foot).
- Drugs and alcohol. Under no circumstances should you be under the influence of hallucinogenic substances or drunk, as you'll face negative consequences. Your faculties may be impaired and your reflexes won't be sharp, which could lead to serious incidents.
- Stay alert. Don't get distracted chatting with friends in the middle of the ring, as the animal could charge at any moment and catch you off guard. It's also highly recommended to never take your eyes off the animal, as you can't predict how it might react or where it might go.
- Respect. Both for the animals and the facilities. You mustn't mistreat the heifers nor intentionally damage the estate.
- Fun. It's the most important rule! At a capea you're there to enjoy yourself and feel like a real bullfighter in the ring, with adrenaline and nerves at their peak. Don't forget it!
If you want to experience an incredibly exciting day, don't think twice and organise a capea. Discovering one of the most practised adventure sports is priceless. Go for it!
