Roland Portalier Arena

Rue Jules Ferry, Parentis-en-born See the map
The heritage of Parentis en Born was enriched in 1927 by the construction of the Roland Portalier bullring

They owe their name to the name of a former Mayor of the town and a Landes race ganadero. He had the wooden bleachers that used to be set up on the fairground for local festivals replaced and built these arenas.

The fighting bulls made their appearance on August 28, 1927, and the bullring welcomed the greatest bullfighters of the time. The city of Parentis becomes an unavoidable meeting place for bullfighting lovers.

In 1996, the first feria of "Sen Bertomiu" (Saint Barthelemy) appeared, marked by an important diversity of festivities (cavalcades, bandas, bodegas, etc.). The years 2000 were marked by the development of the feria which became one of the most popular in the South-West of France. These arenas of 2800 seats at the origin and increased to 4000 seats in 1964 are the only ones in the North of the Landes.
