The taming the bull festival Jallikattu is all set to get big on the lines of IPL cricket. The Tamil Nadu Government is gearing up to introduce jallikattu league matches. The focal point of this initiative is the brand new grand Jallikattu stadium, sprawling over 66.8 acres at Keelakarai village, Alangnallur in Madurai district – hailed as the Jallikattu capital.
Â
The state-of-the-art stadium, equipped with seating for 5000 spectators, not only promises an enhanced viewing experience but also features a dedicated museum showcasing the celebrated jallikattu bulls. The ambitious plan aims to include Jallikattu into the limelight of India’s tourism landscape.
Â
The festival’s history of bulls injuring, maiming and goring to death hundreds of bull tamers and spectators, along with concerns over cruelty to bulls, the new facility incorporates emergency response measures like a fully-equipped hospital for bull tamers and a veterinary center for the bulls.

Contrary to concerns, existing jallikattu venues will still host events, with league matches overseen by the Madurai District Administration and the State Sports department. As Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin prepares to inaugurate the stadium, there is a palpable sense of anticipation regarding the transformation of this ancient valorous sport into a modern-day money-spinner.
Beyond jallikattu seasons, the versatile stadium will serve as a venue for cultural and sporting events during lean periods, ensuring year-round utility. The league matches are poised to usher in a new era for jallikattu, blending tradition with modern spectacle and economic potential.
