Plans for the “Summer Music Weekend” are almost ready to launch at Chester Racecourse. July will see the venerable racecourse holding a two-day extravaganza featuring a diverse blend of dance club classics and a celebration of one of the biggest Britpop bands in the business.
Friday has been dubbed the “Ibiza Classics Evening” and boasts dance brand Hedkandi. Known for its shows that combine live music, DJ sets, mixes and radio, the English record label and brand is responsible for hundreds of different events all over the world from Dublin to Dubai. After a racecard packed with thrills, Hedkandi will perform beloved hits from the party island into the night before they pass the torch to iconic DJ, Dave Pearce, who will present the afterparty from 10 pm.
The next day is called “Supersonic Saturday” and showcases the talents of Oasiz, one of the foremost tributes to the world-famous Britpop band. After the racing, the group will storm the stage to play a live set featuring the biggest hits of Oasis which may include “Don’t Look Back in Anger”, “Wonderwall”, “Roll with It” and “Champagne Supernova”, among others. Oasis superfans will also have the chance to win two tickets to see their favourite band live in Manchester when they play Heaton Park on July 20.
Chester Racecourse’s Summer Music Weekend will now run from July 11 to July 12. The revered racing venue is easy to find in the city on New Crane Street.
