About The Park
History
Blatherskite Park has been an integral part of the Alice Springs community since 1977. Initially the grounds were developed for equestrian purposes and to this day, a large area is still devoted to this use.
Over the years, the honorary group of trustees appointed to manage the operations of the park have expanded its scope to encompass a diverse range of functions for the whole community.
The park is home to the Alice Spring Show, one of the biggest social and agricultural highlights in the Red Centre. It also plays host to the Red CentreNATS, an iconic auto-festival which is a spin-off from the popular Canberra's SummerNats and Apex Central Australia Cup.
Fee
Blatherskite Park generates part of its income from fees charged for use of the grounds and facilities.
