Camel racing in Qatar is an integral part of its tradition and has been part of the Qatari lifestyle for centuries. It's a multi-million-dollar business and a very lucrative form of revenue. In fact, people come from Qatar, the Gulf region, and worldwide to participate or enjoy this competitive sport at Qatar's renowned camel race track at Al Shahaniya.
Camel racing competitions occur from October until February; even if there is no race scheduled on the day you plan to visit, we can still watch the training.
