Actually I have never been to them. I can ask a friend and find out. The Plaza de Toros is a decent size, not sure if they are having any right now

My dad used to own a mine (copper of course ) right next to copper canyon. From El Paso either you drive or fly to Chihuahua (CUU).

And you can drive or take the ChP train (Chihuahua-Pacifico) all the way to copper canyon. I would take the train, it's decent, just make sure you bring some drinking water, and it has excellent views of the mountains.

If you want to go in a group there are some travel agencies in town that specialize in tours to copper canyon.

I used to fly to my dad's mine, and it is breathtaking when seeing from a plane.

Juarez is not a bad city to go to, really good food, cheap drinks.
