AINTREE Racecourse will welcome pop superstar Sophie
Ellis-Bextor and Radio DJ Jo Whiley for Ladies Day on Friday, April 7.
Performing in the Aintree Pavilion at 5.30pm, Sophie will
present some of her greatest tracks such as Murder on the
Dancefloor, Bittersweet and Young Blood plus new hits such as Crystallise.
The aftershow party will follow shortly after at the Red Rum
Lawn were racegoers will be able to sample the very best music supplied by Ms Whiley.
Jo said: “This is going to be a fantastic day at Aintree
Racecourse. I always love DJ’ing at race meetings as the crowds are always in a
great mood after a day’s superb action on the track.
“Liverpool is a wonderful city and Aintree is at the
forefront of supporting and celebrating women in racing so I cannot wait for
April 7 – it is going to be such a big party!”
Liverpool legends, The Lightning Seeds have also been
announced to headline the opening day of the festival but organisers are keeping us eagerly awaiting the name of the artist(s) who will provide the music for the Randox Health Grand National on Saturday, April 8.
Managing director of Aintree Racecourse, John Baker added: “We’re
delighted with this outstanding music line-up on Fabulous Friday of the Randox
Health Grand National Festival. With Liverpool chart toppers, The Lightning
Seeds already announced to open the Festival on Grand Opening Day, we feel
there’s something for everyone and we hope all racegoers enjoy a thrilling day
of racing on the track then come and enjoy these exciting performances.
“With under 80 days to go until the Randox Health Grand
National and the site build about to start, we’re delighted that tickets and
hospitality for the festival are ahead compared to this time last year on all
three days – I’d advise people to try to snap them up quick so they don’t miss
out!
“Aintree has also invested almost £1 million into free WIFI
across the whole which will be available to all racegoers on all three days of
the festival.”
