Broome Races 09 Apr 2013
Silks & Pearls at the 2013 Race Season

Broome & The Kimberley Holidays

There's nothing like mingling with an eclectic crowd at a country race meet. Local larrikins & a laconic atmosphere, go hand in hand with the elation of backing an outside chance and seeing it first past the post. What sets the Broome Race Season apart from other country cousins, is a kaleidoscope of colour; not only a colourful crowd, but a clash of brilliant 'pindan' track & lush bush gardens, where the outback meets the sea. 

 

Located at Gantheume Point, at the southern end of the Broome peninsula, the track is only metres from stunning Cable Beach and a day at the Broome Races is melting pot of Broome's glitterati, holiday makers and racing enthusiasts from far and wide. Crowd watching is a fusion of Akubra's & Blundstones, thongs & singlets, pearls & fascinators. 

 

This year, experiencing a day at the Broome Races is easier than ever.
