The final judging committee of the King Abdulaziz Camel Festival in its tenth edition announced today, Thursday, the results of the winners on the thirty-second day of the festival’s competitions, specifically in the category of the productive stallion for the “red and yellow” colors, after the participants were presented before the committee at the festival grounds in Al-Sayahid Al-Janoubiya of Al-Dahna.

Results of the stallion breeding race (red and yellow)

The competitions witnessed great excitement and strong competition among the owners to showcase the strongest production breeds, and the final results were as follows:

  • In the red camel category, Prince Sultan bin Saud bin Mohammed secured first place, confirming his dominance in this category. Ali Mashhour Hassan Al-Qahtani came in second, while Saud Abdullah Mash’ab Al-Mutairi took third place. Faris Fawaz Qanin Al-Harbi finished fourth, and Mohammed Musayfir Muflih Al-Suwat rounded out the top five.
  • Zero category: Jazaa Obaid Bajad Al-Otaibi won first place, Mansour Nasser Marzouq Al-Otaibi won second place, and Ghazi bin Saleh bin Fallah Al-Otaibi came in third place.

The importance of the productive stallion's cycle and its economic implications

The "Productive Stallion" competition holds exceptional importance within the King Abdulaziz Camel Festival, as it not only assesses individual beauty but also focuses on the stallion's reproductive capacity and the quality of its lineage (male and female camels). This category serves as the true benchmark for the strength of production and the preservation of rare and purebred lines, which directly impacts the market value of camels.

This round contributes to strengthening the economic aspect of the camel sector, as the demand for winning stallion breeds increases, which stimulates buying and selling and supports owners and investors in this vital sector, which is a fundamental pillar in the popular heritage and the local economy associated with it.

King Abdulaziz Festival: A cultural heritage and a global destination

The King Abdulaziz Camel Festival is the world's largest gathering of camels, held annually under royal patronage, embodying the depth of Saudi and Arab identity. The festival aims to preserve and promote camel heritage within Saudi culture, in line with the Kingdom's Vision 2030, which places great importance on the cultural and heritage sector.

Through its successive editions, the festival has succeeded in transforming the “Al-Sayahid” area into a global tourist and heritage destination, attracting interested people and tourists from all over the world to learn about this ancient heritage, thus enhancing the Kingdom’s position as a hub for authentic Arab culture and heritage.

The competition continues and the rounds conclude

The festival continues tomorrow, Friday, with the announcement of the results for the best-producing stallion in the "Wadh" and "Shaqah" categories, in addition to the preliminary round for the "Wadh" and "Sha'al" categories. Meanwhile, the "Rimat" gate witnessed a significant event today, Thursday, with the final entry of the tenth edition's camels participating in the "Crown Prince's Sword" round for the Wadh color, promising fierce competition in the coming days.
