True Outback Horse Racing

About Us

The Julia Creek Turf Club is a small race club situated in the McKinlay Shire, in the remote and rural town of Julia Creek in Far North Western Queensland.

Our club is more than just a racecourse—it’s a place where traditions run deep, from the competitive spirit on the track to the stylish fashions, delicious local cuisine, and family-friendly atmosphere. We host a range of events throughout the year, from our iconic race meets to social gatherings that showcase the warmth and hospitality of Julia Creek.

At the Julia Creek Turf Club, it’s all about community, country charm, and of course, great racing. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, we welcome you to be part of the action and experience the true spirit of the Outback.
