SB To Play Newmarket Nights Festival

Newmarket Racecourse is delighted to announce the legendary SPANDAU BALLET as the second band confirmed to perform at Newmarket Nights in 2010.

Live on stage after racing, the British band will be performing on Friday 25th June following their recent Reformation Tour and will entertain crowds with all their classic songs such as True, Gold, Through the Barricades, Chant Number One, Only When You Leave, and new tracks from their recent album “Once More”.

Following a hugely successful, and critically acclaimed UK tour, playing to over 120,000 fans, including 3 sell out nights at London’s O2 Arena (Live at the O2 DVD released recently), Spandau Ballet have cemented themselves into the history books as one of the greatest live bands this country has ever produced.

Tony Hadley, Gary Kemp, Martin Kemp, Steve Norman and John Keeble formed in 1979 and had their first hit in November 1980 with “To Cut A Long Story Short”. The band lasted ten years, a career arc that spanned the eighties in perfect symmetry, from the nightclubs of Soho and Ibiza to Hollywood and the stadiums of Europe and Australia. After 25 million record sales, six multi-platinum albums and 23 hit singles, Spandau Ballet split in 1990 only to reform early in 2009 to huge critical and fan support.

Stephen Wallis, Managing Director of Newmarket Racecourses said, “We are thrilled to be announcing Spandau Ballet as part of the 2010 Newmarket Nights line-up. Spandau Ballet were hugely successful in the eighties and the success of their comeback tour in 2009 proves they are still immensely popular.”

Stephen continued “We expect tickets to sell quickly for Spandau Ballet so therefore I would urge people to book early to avoid disappointment.”

Tickets for Spandau Ballet are now on sale and can be booked online at www.newmarketracecourses.co.uk or by calling 0844 579 3010. Tickets are priced at:

Premier Enclosure £36 (Limited Children places at £15)
Grandstand & Paddock £28 Enclosure (Limited Children places at £15)
Garden Enclosure £18 (Limited Children places at £10)

Newmarket Nights are the hottest ticket for a summer Friday night out in the East of England! The racing gets under way early evening and concludes as nights falls, immediately followed by a spectacular open air concert by a top band or artiste. The atmosphere sizzles and the bars remain open until the conclusion of the concert.
