Central Australia · homeMore than a marketplace — it's our town.
SCNTpl Hub is where local business and local life meet. The trades that keep the Centre running — and the events, the causes and the community that make Alice home. From the Finke to the Todd, this is us.
What's on around the Centre
The events that bring us together each year. Timing's a guide — check the official event for exact dates.
Finke Desert Race
One of Australia's toughest off-road races — bikes, buggies and cars from town to Finke and back. The Centre's biggest weekend.
Parrtjima — A Festival in Light
A free Aboriginal light and art festival lighting up the MacDonnell Ranges. Culture, story and country.
Alice Springs Beanie Festival
A much-loved celebration of beanies, fibre art and Aboriginal artists from across the desert.
Camel Cup
Camel races, family fun and a proper Centralian day out at Blatherskite Park.
Henley-on-Todd Regatta
The world's only dry-river 'boat race' — bottomless boats run down the sandy Todd. Pure Alice.
Alice Springs Show
The annual ag show — livestock, trades, rides and community, all in one place.
We backed Jacob Sawtell down the track — and back.
Two days, one of the toughest off-road races on earth. A local rider, backed by local businesses — that's the whole idea.
