Live Music & Racing Events

Live music and horse racing go hand in hand with many racecourses offering live music after racing throughout the summer months and some offering music throughout the day. The music varies but tends to feature popular tribute bands like Everswift, Fleetwood Unchained, ABBA Revival and the Bootleg Beatles, along with DJs playing top hits from the past and the present, dedicated country music nights with bucking broncos and line dancing, as well as popular artists, such as Becky Hill, Tom Grennan, and Craig David. You often tend to find live music at special races too, such as Ladies’ Day or at bigger festivals, such as Goodwood and Cheltenham.
