The competitions were very exciting, reflecting the strength of the preparations for this season, and the results of the winners were as follows:

• In the red category, Prince Sultan bin Saud bin Mohammed secured first place, while Ali Mashhour Hassan Al-Qahtani came in second. Saud Abdullah Mash’ab Al-Mutairi finished third, followed by Faris Fawaz Qanin Al-Harbi in 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 achieved second place, while Ghazi bin Saleh bin Fallah Al-Otaibi came in third place.

The economic and cultural importance of the productive stallion race

The "Productive Stallion" category is one of the most important categories in the King Abdulaziz Camel Festival, as it focuses on the quality of production and the genetic lineage of camels. The significance of this category lies in its being the true benchmark for the strength of stallions and their ability to produce rare and distinguished breeds, which directly impacts the market value of camels and boosts the economic activity in the Kingdom's camel sector. Winning this category not only means receiving the prize but also enhances the reputation of owners and their products in local and regional camel markets.

King Abdulaziz Camel Festival: A Global Heritage Facility

The King Abdulaziz Camel Festival is a major cultural, economic, and sporting event that aims to preserve and promote camel heritage within Saudi, Arab, and Islamic culture. The festival takes place in Al-Sayahid Al-Janoubiya, northeast of Riyadh, a historical area that served as a gathering point for pilgrim and trade caravans in the Arabian Peninsula.

The festival comes within the framework of the Kingdom’s Vision 2030, which pays great attention to the camel and heritage sector, as the festival has become a global tourist destination that attracts interested people from different countries around the world, which contributes to introducing the Saudi folk heritage and Arab hospitality.
