Carrington Bullring

Carrington Bullring, formally the Carrington Sports Palace is a former bullring and sports venue in the Cadona neighborhood of Carrington. Carrington BC plays their home games in the bullring.

Bullfighting
The bullring was built from 1885-1887, replacing the old bullring built in 1773. One of the earliest best-known matches involved Eric Dench in 1889, in which his horse was fatally injured by the bull Caspian and then he was gored by the dying bull before dying.

In 1966 several bullfighting exhibition events were held at the bullring, most famously on 4 June, where the famed torero Antonio Ordóñez fought, alongside Brunanter Carles Mascena.

Basketball
The first basketball matches for Carrington BC occurred in the bullring. Eventually in 1959 a temporary roof was added to the bullring, and a more permanent court was added. Other than the 1966 bullfighting exhibitions, the basketball floor has remained in place.
