Bull Race Ceremony - Madura - East Java

Maduras most famous attraction is the annual bull racing (kerapan sap)), which takes place during the dry season in August and September. These exciting and colourful tournaments consist of a race between two pairs of bulls, each team pulling a rider and sled. Following a series of heats, which take place in different parts of the island for some weeks, the highlight of the season occurs when the finals are held in Pamekasan, Maduras capital. Recently a new bull racing stadium has been built in Bangkalan with the object of attracting more tourists to the island.
