Carlton Mid Cairns Amateurs Carnival

The Far North Queensland Amateur Turf Club (Club) was founded in 1959 ago as a coastal version of the historical Oak Park races and as a way of bringing city and country together. The brainchild of the late Sir Sydney Williams OBE and Les Gallagher, the first Cairns Amateurs carnival was held on 18th and 19th September 1959.

The mission of the Club is to operate a sustainable and accessible annual race carnival, which showcases the social, cultural and commercial attributes of Cairns and the tropical north.

Now in its 56th year the Carlton Mid Cairns Amateurs Carnival is one of regional Australia’s most vibrant and fastest growing social events that is a major contributor to the Far North, with last year’s event generating 15,137 visitor nights and over $13.9 million into the local economy.

Carlton Mid Cairns Amateurs Carnival is proudly supported by Queensland Government through Tourism and Events Queensland, Carlton Mid, Cairns Regional Council, Cairns Airport, The Reef Hotel Casino Cairns, ANZ, Treasury Wine Estates and media partners, The Cairns Post and Zinc 102.7.

This year’s three day Carlton Mid Cairns Amateurs Carnival is being held 11-13 September, 2014. Highlights include Ladies Fashion High Tea, President’s Welcome Cocktail Party, Cairns Amateurs Ball and two days of racing with a selection of tickets and packages available.

General admission is just $30 or a discounted $25 when purchased online. For information on all associated events, membership prices, tickets and packages available, visit  www.cairnsamateurs.org.au or Telephone: 07 40331135
