Our spectacular Plaza Mayor has always been linked to bullfighting, so the famous bullfighter Frascuelo (XIX century), held many runs in this unique location. His love for this town comes from an unfortunate fact. One evening in which was held a capea , he was hit by a bull and the town of Chinchon addresses his health hosting him in a family house. Once recovered, the bullfighter reward us with the gift of the first fights tabloncillo and twice to the benefit of the poor. The current festival to benefit the elderly from the San Jose began performing in 1923 by Marcial Lalanda. Currently, son Julio Aparicio is organized by our famous and oldest bullfighting festival that takes place in Spain.

Following the film world, we can not forget Jose Sacristán, a resident of our town and actor in good standing. For some years is responsible for organizing a theater festival in Chinchón.

Currently The Very Noble and Loyal City of Chinchon, preserves and cherishes its history harmonized with his present, moving steadily forward leaning on agricultural products quality and great tourism potential in the fast changing.
