Young Spaniards can now apply for a cultural grant to go to bullfights. The Spanish Supreme Court has ruled that the government’s decision to exclude bullfighting contests from the coverage of the Voucher lacked justification and has therefore annulled it.

 Young spaniards can now take advantage of the government’s 400-euro Youth Culture Voucher to encourage cultural activities can spend the money on going to the bullfights.
