Welcome to Al Marmoom Camel Race-Track, you can find a modern day version of the old tradition of camel racing.
The sport has been a pastime that originates in the region and has a whole community of avid local followers. Dubai’s biggest camel race-track is located next to Al Marmoom Heritage Village and the Al Lisaili area.
From the stand, you can be a part of this heart-pumping, crowd-cheering sport that has been integral to Emirati life for centuries.
Once the gates open, the race is on, and so is an experience like no other. Watch as camels flood from the gates, legs flying in all directions, making their way as fast as they can down the track. Trainers follow in 4X4s, yelling for their jockeys to pick up the pace and be the first across the finish line.
The excitement is at the peak and this is something you must see to believe. Our only preparation advice is to bring your binoculars, as you wouldn’t want to miss a thing.
Although the races start fairly early from 7am to 9am, it’s well worth your while to pay this unique sport a visit. You’ll notice plenty of tourists making their way to Al Marmoom to experience this must-see attraction showcasing Arabian culture and heritage.
