A day at the races, maybe a few wins, and then hit after hit after hit
Newmarket Nights are back with a great variety of acts this summer to round off an evening – or in one case afternoon – of fab racing action with beats and tunes that you’ll know.
In its 30th year, the events are recognised as the premier racing and music events in the country.
August’s line-up kicks off on the 5th with a DJ set from Mark Ronson, the man who’s had huge-selling and massively successful hits with Amy Winehouse, Lily Allen and Daniel Merriweather, not to mention one of the century’s most-streamed numbers, Uptown Funk with Bruno Mars on vocal duties that went to No. 1 here and in the United States.
If that’s not enough success for one human, he’s also produced songs for Adele and Duran Duran, as well as Amy Winehouse’s Back to Black album.
Another perfect way to get your weekend started follows on 12 August when Jess Glynne performs. First rising to fame as the singer on Clean Bandit’s No. 1 Rather Be, she’s gone on to have a No. 1 album, I Cry When I Laugh, which is the highest-selling debut by any singer or group in the last 12 months.
The music and horse racing combination on the July Course then turns to a Saturday afternoon, when the 27th sees Little Mix take the stage for Summer Saturday Live.
Since winning 2011’s X Factor, they have had seven million record sales, two UK No. 1 singles, two platinum albums (DNA and Salute) and half a billion YouTube and Vevo views. With massive tours of the United States, Australia and Japan, they’re a Brexport to make the nation proud.
There are a wide variety of ticket options for the Newmarket Nights events, which include various enclosures and restaurant and hospitality experiences.
