When Les Reines (Queens) covet the crown, they move the crowd and the craze is such that when the time comes, the tradition lives passionately and thousands of spectators will travel to attend these events.

The matches are harshly regulated and take place under the supervision of a veterinarian.

The regional playoffs are decisive. However, it's during the regional final which always take place in Aproz that Les Reines (the Queens) confront each other to determine la reine des reines. To win, criteria such as agility, shape, endurance and pugnacity are required. The cattle selected for the match are carefully treated for this purpose.
