The Comissió del Bou de Vila-real revived the cattle livestock competition during the festivities of the Mare de Déu de Gràcia in the city of Vila-real. The event marks the return of a tradition that had not been held for 18 years.

The livestock competition is a traditional activity of the festivities in honor of the patron saint of Vila-real. This edition represents an effort to recover local customs that are part of the city's cultural heritage.

The organization was overseen by the Comissió del Bou de Vila-real, the entity responsible for coordinating bullfighting and traditional activities during the celebrations. The revival of this event is part of a broader trend of valuing local traditions.
