Donald Trump is no longer holding a campaign rally in Huntsville on Sunday.

Instead, it's going to be in Madison.

The Alabama Secretary of State's office announced Thursday night that the Sunday rally for the frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination will now be held at Madison Municipal Stadium - the football home of Bob Jones and James Clemens high schools.

The stadium, which opened in 2003, is located at 211 Celtic Drive in Madison.

The rally is still set for 4 p.m.

The campaign began looking around for alternative venues after larger-than-expected crowds began registering to attend the rally.

As of Wednesday, almost 20,000 people had registered to attend the rally, which was originally set for AAL USA Inc. on Wall-Triana Highway. The event was to take place inside a 67,000 square foot hangar at AAL USA with a capacity for 20,000 people.

It's the second time Trump has planned a campaign rally in Alabama and been forced to shift to a larger venue.

In August 2015, Trump's rally in Mobile moved from the civic center theater to Ladd-Peebles Stadium. That rally resulted in the larger campaign crowd in the 2016 election cycle, with estimates as high as 30,000 for the event.
