The Chidambaram Temple has a rich history, with mentions in ancient Tamil texts and scriptures. The temple was patronized and renovated by various South Indian dynasties, including the Cholas, Pallavas, and Vijayanagara rulers.

The temple hosts several festivals throughout the year, with the annual Natyanjali Dance Festival being a highlight. This festival attracts dancers and artists from all over the country to pay tribute to Lord Nataraja through dance performances.
