In 2022, Triana Restaurant became part of an international television adventure when The Amazing Race Australia arrived in Chefchaouen during its journey through Morocco.
Known throughout the world as Morocco’s Blue City, Chefchaouen offered an unforgettable setting for a race built around travel, culture, discovery, and human connection.
The Race Arrives in Morocco
The Moroccan stages of The Amazing Race Australia introduced competitors to several of the country’s most recognisable landscapes and traditions.
The journey included the cinematic surroundings of Ouarzazate, the lively streets and traditional souks of Marrakech, and the blue-painted medina of Chefchaouen. Each location presented a different side of Morocco, from architecture and craftsmanship to music, food, and local traditions.
When the competitors reached Chefchaouen, the city became more than a backdrop. Its narrow streets, stairways, distinctive doors, and blue architecture became part of the race itself.
Racing Through the Blue City
The Chefchaouen stage invited competitors to explore the character of the city through challenges inspired by Moroccan culture.
The route highlighted elements associated with the region, including traditional music, local craftsmanship, Moroccan black soap, and the famous blue-painted streets of the medina.
Navigating Chefchaouen added another dimension to the competition. Teams had to move quickly through winding alleys, steep stairways, and hidden passages while observing the details that make the Blue City unique. The result introduced an international audience to Chefchaouen’s atmosphere, architecture, and cultural identity.
The Final Destination: Triana
After completing the challenges across Chefchaouen, the competitors made their way to Triana Restaurant.
With its panoramic terrace overlooking the Blue City and the surrounding Rif Mountains, Triana offered a memorable setting for the conclusion of the stage. The moment brought together international television, travel, Moroccan hospitality, and one of Chefchaouen’s most beautiful viewpoints.
For Triana, participating in this experience was an opportunity to welcome an international production while sharing the atmosphere and character of the restaurant with viewers beyond Morocco.
A Proud Chefchaouen Moment
The appearance of Chefchaouen in The Amazing Race Australia celebrated the city as a destination of culture, beauty, and discovery.
It also reflected the kind of experience that defines Triana: meaningful encounters, panoramic views, Mediterranean flavours, Andalusian soul, and warm Moroccan hospitality.
Whether guests arrive from another part of Morocco or travel from the other side of the world, every visit becomes part of Triana’s story.
More Than a Restaurant
Triana is a place where gastronomy, music, culture, and travel meet.
From sunset dinners and live flamenco performances to international productions and special celebrations, the restaurant continues to create memorable experiences in the heart of Chefchaouen.
The visit from The Amazing Race Australia remains a special chapter in that journey—an international adventure ending with an unforgettable view over the Blue City.
