Big names Ronan Keating and Tom Grennan will be performing on Newcastle's two biggest racing days of the year, it has been announced, and tickets are expected to sell out fast.
First Grennan will be providing the post-racing entertainment at Newcastle Racecourse on Plate Day on July 1, with tickets due to go on general sale at 10am this Friday, February 3 (following a pre-sale to O2 priority customers on Wednesday, February 1, also at 10am). Then Irish star Keating will get the Ladies Day crowds going on July 29.
The Live After Racing events at Gosforth Park are set to be hugely popular, with Plate Day and Ladies Day already being huge crowd-pullers in the city. Singer-songwriter Grennan - whose upcoming new album What Ifs & Maybe and new UK tour will launch in March - is currently enjoying a roll of success.
