Les arènes Roland Portalier

In 1927, Parentis en Born was enriched by the construction of the Roland Portalier Arena. The Arena gets its name from one of the town’s former mayors, who was also a Landes racing ganadero. He had the wooden bleachers that were set up on the fair grounds for local festivals replaced with a permanent arena.
Fighting bulls were brought in on 28 August 1927, and the arena saw the arrival of the era’s most celebrated toreros. The town became a must-see destination for bullfighting buffs.
In 1996, the first feria of “Sen Bertomiu” (Saint Bartholomew) was held.
