The Aste Nagusia of Bilbao approaches Aste Nagusia this year with fewer people than ever
- EH Bildu Bilbao has denounced that this year's bullfighting is having a "tremendous failure," so they have put forward proposals. The fact that so few people get closer has provoked the anger of citizenship on social networks.

Several people have denounced on social media that Bilbao's bullfighting schedule is being "a failure" for fans. In fact, every day there are few tickets sold in Bilbao: on the second day a quarter of tickets was sold, and on the fourth day only a third was sold.
Faced with this situation, EH Bildu de Bilbao has advanced that he will present his proposals on the reform of the law: “The City Hall will have to once and for all ask the citizens what use they want to give to the bullring,” they said. “I like to be empty. It is the first step towards ending this barbarism. There are no excuses anymore,” a friend said on Twitter.

Some have referred to the Government of Juan Mari Aburto and asked him why he continues to finance “such a pernicious activity” with public money. In response, "full or empty," a citizen says it's "embarrassing" to keep doing bullfights in 2019.
