The exciting Newmarket Nights live music series kicks off this month with two headline acts.

On 20 June, the racecourse transforms into an outdoor dance club, as Ministry of Sound Classical takes the stage. This breathtaking 30-piece orchestra will recreate and celebrate the best hand-picked tunes from the genre’s history, by such acts as The Chemical Brothers, Dario G, Faithless and Fatboy Slim.

Then, on 27 June, comes the enigmatic frontman of rock band The Verve, Richard Ashcroft, who carved out a reputation as one of the most recognisable performers of the 90s with breakthrough album Urban Hymns. As a solo artist, the two-time Ivor Novello Award winner has released six top-five albums, his most recent being Acoustic Hymns.
