Abstract

Bloodless bullfighting is a traditional display of strength in which bulls instinctively compete horn-to-horn for herd leadership or mating priority. These events, observed with interest by rural communities for centuries, are considered an example of intangible cultural heritage. Initially, they took place as small-scale festivals where bulls wrestled before moving to the plateau. Over time, these festivals gained popularity, transitioned to specialised arenas, and evolved into large-scale events attracting thousands of spectators from neighbouring districts and provinces. Today, they encompass various activities, such as sports competitions, art exhibitions, and concerts, contributing significantly to tourism and the cattle breeding sector. This study investigates the impact of bullfighting festivals on cattle breeding. Conducted using a qualitative research design, data were collected from 17 bull breeders through semi-structured interviews. Content analysis was performed using the MAXQDA software, and findings were visualised. The results indicate that these festivals create new economic opportunities, leading to a shift from low-income traditional cattle breeding to high-value bull breeding specifically for competitions. Additionally, the positive effects of festivals enhance the motivation of rural livestock farmers and strengthen their connection to their work, ultimately supporting the sustainable development of the region.
