Gelora Ratu Pamelingan Stadium, Football stadium in Tlanakan, Indonesia.
Gelora Ratu Pamelingan Stadium is a football stadium in Tlanakan, a district south of Pamekasan city on the island of Madura, Indonesia. It has a covered main stand, an open seating area around the pitch, and a natural grass playing field used for official league matches.
The stadium opened in November 2016 under the supervision of Pamekasan Regent Achmad Syafii, making it the first modern football ground in the area. A renovation followed in 2017, focusing on improving the playing surface and maintenance systems.
The stadium is named after Nyai Banu, the first Islamic queen of Pamekasan, a choice that ties the venue directly to the region's identity. On match days, local supporters fill the stands with drums and chants that reflect the passionate football culture of Madura.
The stadium is located in Tlanakan, south of Pamekasan city center, and is most easily reached by car or local transport. On match days the area around the ground fills up quickly, so arriving early makes the visit more straightforward.
The playing surface is planted with Zoysia grass, a variety chosen for how well it holds up in hot and humid conditions. This type of grass is still relatively rare in stadiums of this size across Indonesia.
