After the opening ceremony, unique performances such as camel racing and camel shooting began one after another, gradually pushing the party to a climax. In the evening, people sit around the campfire, watch Arabic dances and taste roast mutton.

Related customs and activities:

There are two main competitions in the festival, one is horse racing named Duz International Ability Endurance Race, and the other is camel racing named "Mehari". And perform demonstrations, camel fights and other performances in turn. Horse racing is a very difficult race. The horses were radiant, and the riders galloped on the runway, passing through four "veterinary gates" made of local high-quality wool fabrics in Duz. The runway is bumpy and stretches in the desert, passing through yellow sand and forests. The performance of the boat in the desert is more exciting. Camel race is one of the traditional programs of Sahara Festival. Camels usually give people the impression of being steady and slow, but in the performance of chasing each other, they are uncharacteristic, just like plugging wings and running like flies, with a speed of up to 60 kilometers per hour. On the competition field, riders dressed in national costumes waved whips, and camels flew to the finish line like arrows, amid people's shouts. There are all kinds of placards and posters hanging in the square, which reflect people's wishes, change life in the desert and express thousands of years of civilization in a few hours.

There is a sport called Falgaviye, which means it is worth seeing. Two specially trained male camels are fighting. When two approaching camels meet, they will roar and chase wildly, sometimes with their heads held high and their feet on their feet, and sometimes with their necks around them, opening their mouths and biting each other. As long as we meet, we will hug each other tightly, and we will never give up until we win or lose. A few seconds later, in order not to hurt the camels, the owner put them away before the draw broke. The unique camel war pushed the party to a climax. The content of the festival is rich and colorful. Wherever he goes, a strong man wearing armor and holding a pike can ride a camel and greet the audience with a knife; Camel teams carrying sedan chairs perform local wedding ceremonies and folk songs and dances; There are also funny performances such as camels drinking orange juice with bottles in their mouths. In addition, the festival also invited some traditional handicraft artists to perform. The drums decorated with two colors and two symbols of Tunisian national flag constantly give out harmonious sounds, which are intertwined with the cheers and cheers of the people.
