How we checked
Last checked October 20, 2026 against camelclub.se-tam.com. Before anything appears here, a separate check fetches each source again and confirms that every date we show is in the quoted text.
Notes from the last check
The King Abdulaziz Camel Festival is confirmed to exist and be annual, with the Camel Club as organizer and al-Sayahid as the site according to Saudipedia and the Social Development Bank page (last modified 18 May 2026), but the Wikipedia article gives Guwei'iyya instead. No official 11th-edition dates could be quoted (the organizer's domain was unreachable and the search budget ran out), so the edition status is tba and the result is partial.
