CHEPSTOW Racecourse has confirmed that it will host two major concerts this summer – UB40 on Saturday 30th May and Madness on Friday 10th July.

As part of Madness's open air live tour, the band will head to Chepstow as one of the 19 shows scheduled for sporting venues around the UK and concert-goers will experience classics from both bands.

Phil Bell, executive director at Chepstow Racecourse, said: "We are delighted that we have secured UB40 and Madness to play at the racecourse this summer.

"They are both national treasures, with songs that span multiple decades, and they will both attract a huge audience."

Tickets for the Madness Racenight on 10th July, go on sale this Friday (20th February) from £39, with a limited number of early-bird tickets priced at £35.

Phil Bell said: "Chepstow Racecourse has played host to some fantastic acts in the past few years, including Jools Holland, and Sir Tom Jones in 2014.

"Both UB40 and Madness always put on an incredible show, with hits that appeal to music fans of all ages. The combination of a day at the races, followed immediately by a concert has proven to be a real hit, and we are looking forward to two fantastic evenings of entertainment."
