RACEDAY TICKETS
Newbury’s racedays are proving popular in 2025; Visit Malta Hungerford Day follows hot on the heels of Weatherbys Super Sprint Day in July, which saw more than 15,000 fans enjoying an afternoon’s racing with live headline sets from Ella Henderson and Sophie Ellis-Bextor. More is to come in September too, with BRIT-award winner, James Bay, performing live at Dubai Duty Free International Weekend.
Fans have already saved more than £300,000 on tickets to this summer’s Party in the Paddock music racedays and there’s still time to save on tickets to James Bay with the Early Bird discount available until 11.59pm on Friday, August 8.
