I don't know why this is so hard for anyone to do:

I spent on several occasions hours looking for information on specific times and schedules for the camel races. Nothing is posted online by any organization - fine - but also anyone who does go and successfully catch the races don't report back as to when this all was... very strange.

Anyways... I went! And I caught them, and I also asked a local as to when this all transpired, regularly:

FRIDAYS and SATURDAYS

AL-SHEEHANIYA (go towards Dukhan, it's on the way, you'll see a signboard that says "Camel Race")

1pm-3pm (Definitely starts at 1pm, but may end later)

I have only gone Fridays, so I can't vouch for Saturdays.

Enjoy. For goodness sake.

Ps. Big race coming up next week I think.

The race course is in Al Shahaniya. Take the Dukhan road from Rayyan, about 35 - 40 kilometers. No idea about race dates, though.
