The Camel Cup is an annual camel racing festival held in Australia. The race usually takes place at Blatherskite Park in the town Alice Springs, Northern Territory. The event is organised by the Apex Club of Central Australia.[1]
History
The first such event was held in 1970 in the dry bed of the Todd River between two Lions Club members, in an ephemeral river in the southern Northern Territory. It soon became a part of the Alice Springs Centenary Year Celebrations. The popularity of the event was recognised by the Alice Springs Lions Club, and it started an annual celebration in Traeger Park. Due to security reasons it was soon moved to Arunga Park Speedway in Stuart, N.T.
It was 1979 when the race was transferred to a track specially built for camel racing at Blatherskite Park.[2]
