Discover one of the most curious and colorful sports in South America when you attend a Fighting Cholitas wrestling match. This traditional theatrical fight is performed exclusively by Indigenous women as a display of empowerment.

Fighting Cholitas Show

We'll pick you up from your hotel in La Paz and head to El Alto, the second most populated city in Bolivia. The journey takes around 45 minutes to the wrestling match venue. The Fighting Cholitas are a group of indigenous Bolivian women who stage bouts in full traditional costume, raising awareness of their position.

Upon arrival, you'll have fantastic seats close to the ring for a prime view. While watching the fight, you can enjoy popcorn and a soft drink. The Cholita fight resembles mainstream Mexican lucha libre or American pro wrestling, featuring dramatized entertainment suitable for families with spectacular acrobatic moves.

After the performance, we'll return to La Paz by bus.
