Alice Springs Racecourse

Alice Springs Racecourse Northern Territory

Alice Springs Racecourse is located at Pioneer Park Racecourse South Stuart Highway Alice Springs NT 0870 

Racing moved to Pioneer Park on the South Stuart Highway in 1977, following the closure of the Mount Nancy Racecourse, which was on the North side of town, approximately where Head Street is now situated. The Mount Nancy Racecourse was established in 1928, after a Royal Dedication of land was made for public recreation. The last race meeting at the Mount Nancy Racecourse was on 18 June 1977, with the last Race being won by a horse called Abeson trained by Gary Curnow and ridden by Tommy Gibbs.

The Alice Springs Turf Club, just 7km from the Alice Springs CBD, is Australia's most centrally situated thoroughbred racing club.

Patrons to Pioneer Park are well catered for, from the well-appointed Members and Public Bars, to the fine fare served up from the Kiosk, to the pleasant surroundings that individuals and families can enjoy - and then there's the racing!

The Alice Springs Turf Club hosts many meetings during the year including XXXX Gold Alice Springs Cup Carnival.
