Brunette Races Celebrate Outback Spirit | Adelaide News

The Brunette Races just wrapped up in the Northern Territory, drawing over 800 people to Brunette Downs for its 116th year—a wild, dusty celebration of outback life where jillaroos and jackaroos compete in rodeo, campdrafting, and a grueling obstacle course mirroring real station work. After rain delayed mustering, this became a bucket-list escape for Aussies craving rugged adventure. Stars like Jess Angus and bull rider Mitch Reinke shone, while locals rode their own bred horses under desert skies. It’s not just competition—it’s a living tribute to Australia’s heartland, where tradition, grit, and community collide under the outback sun.
