Ticket sales for Newmarket Nights are up 350% on figures recorded for this time last year – over 36,000 have already been sold to eager customers, and the number of people ordering tickets each day is rising rapidly. Corporate entertainment packages are being snapped up and the number of family bookings has soared in comparison to previous years.

Increased sales can, in part, be attributed to this year’s fantastic line-up of top quality bands. For the first time, Newmarket will be entertained by Atomic Kitten and Liberty X - as well as bringing back the ever-popular Jools Holland and his Rhythm and Blues Orchestra and the legendary Status Quo

Sales have also been lifted by the new dedicated booking line, 08701 800 801, and new website, www.newmarketnights.co.uk.

Gaynor Haxby, Marketing Manager for Newmarket Racecourses, commented, ‘The interest in this year’s Newmarket Nights has been phenomenal and we would urge people to book early to avoid disappointment.. We would also remind racegoers that there only a limited number of free child places available for Newmarket Nights this year and if they are planning to come with the family they will need to book their free child places in advance. Once the free child places are allocated normal adult ticket prices will apply. .’
