Not exactly
I believe bullfighting is considered by some as a sort of "play", something like going to the theatre but not exactly. The bullfight consists of various acts, I am not sure how many, with the final act , involving the "estocada mortal"- death thrust with a sword, where the bull dies. The "fight" includes various technical movements by the "torero" using his "capa" - cape. The names of some of the movements are"una verónica, y una gaonera". What you have posted is just killing "una matanza" for killing sake.
so, its like bullfights, right'
Hi Melina
This is a classic example showing why context should be added to posts. Initially it appeared that the word for which you were searching was plural. With the context, it turns out that it is a town doing the torturing.
Hi Melina, Tordesillas is a village in Spain, actually quite a big one.
The bull is set free amongst the town inhabitants.
This is one of the favourable pages of this custom.

Personally I do not understand this kind of cruelty. The bull, at the end of the track, is killed by the people throwing spears, which sounds quite incredible but is true. some of these ancient "traditions" have nothing to do in nowadays society. (my opnion)
Tordesillas is a village of valladolid (Spain)
You refer to a feast 'Torneo del toro de la Vega'.
This feast has people great to favor (defenders of ancient traditions) and many people in against. The bull is not treated by many humanity. It is brutal, bloody and cruel. Respect is had little as the animal.
Free to the bull and it is prosecute by many persons (sometimes +500 or) afoot and mounted in yours horses. They use lances of 30 cm
