This year, 30 camels and their jockeys will make their way to the Forbes Racecourse from as far north as Rockhampton and as far south as Victoria.
There will be plenty of action off-track as well with 10 market-stalls on display, helicopter rides, pedal power sheep shearing, a vintage tractor and engine display, sheep dog demonstration and mock sheep trial.
Local dancers will perform on the day and House of Tribes will once again provide great musical entertainment.
There will be plenty of food and drinks available as well as a licensed bar.
The gates will open at 10am on Friday and the event is expected to finish by 6pm that night. Tickets can be purchased at the gate and cost $10 per adult, $5 for aged pensioners and children under 16 can enter for free.
