The prototype of Nadam Congress is the Mongolian "Sacrifice to Aobao" grand meeting, which is an activity for grassland people to sacrifice their ancestors and pray for the blessing of heaven and earth. According to the inscription on the cliff of Genghis Khan, in 1225, Genghis Khan made a western expedition, and on his way back to the grassland, he held a Nadam meeting to celebrate the conquest of the flower thorn submodule.

During the Yuan Dynasty, the political situation was relatively stable, and Nadam was widely developed in Mongolian grassland areas. In Qing Dynasty, Zasak, the Mongolian flag (the length of a flag), held a grand flag-raising event to show its prominent position. At the same time, during the Aobao Sacrifice and Temple Fair, fixed celebrations were held in various places, forming a multi-level and multi-form grassland Nadam Conference.

Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region was founded in 1947, and Nadam was designated as Mongolian grassland rally. 65438-0948, the Nadam Conference of Ganjul Temple in Hulunbeier League was held. Taking this as a starting point, the League-level Nadam Conference was held in Xilin Gol League, Wulanchabu League, Yikezhao League, Bayannaoer League, Zhelimu League (Tongliao City) and Xing 'an League. 195 1 year, the first nadam convention of the autonomous region was held.

From the 1950s to the mid-1980s, Nadamudo was an irregular celebration rally led by the government. Since 199 1, the Nadam convention has become an important way for people in the grassland to gather and entertain, with increasingly rich contents and a large number of participants.
