By marching naked, they protested the festival and the following bullfight, arguing the bulls are tortured for entertainment. The city of San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, cancelled its "Sanmiguelada" running of the bulls after 2006, citing public disorder associated with the event.

It is now called "La Marquesada" and the three-day event is held during the last weekend of the month of September
