it isn't actually in Al ain it is on the Al Ain road, coming from Dubai just past the Al Ain Outlet Mall. Times are never published you just have to turn up early on a Friday morning and hope for the best

Hi, I live in Al Ain and the only thing actually in AA is the Camel Market which is on the Meyziad Road every Friday, however if you want camel racing it is at a place called Sweihan which is either the first or second exit after you get on the main Abu Dhabi road from Al Ain, it is well signposted

I seem to remember seeing a camel track on the way out of Dubai but the Al Ain one is a total separate one. Please ignore the sarcastic comments peterd sadly its part of their persona and they havent got any helpful information to pass on to new members. Hope you enjoy the camel racing.

yeah that's the one, I call it the Al Ain one as it is on the Al Ain road further up there on the right hand side. I don't know about timings etc it is just a case of pot luck to be honest with you
