Aintree
Racecourse is warming up for its popular Ladies Night race meeting
on Friday 14th May. In addition to an evening of horses and courses,
visitors will also be treated to a live appearance by singer Peter
Andre, star of the recent ITV series of 'I'm a Celebrity, Get Me
Out Of Here!'
Andre
will perform a number of songs, including his chart hit 'Mysterious
Girl' in front of the grandstands after racing. Surely one of pop
music's most intriguing comebacks this year, the event should prove
to be good preparation for the tanned popster, as he will shortly
embark on a UK tour.
On
the 14th May, he follows in the footsteps of acts such as Mis-Teeq
and Atomic Kitten, both of whom have performed at previous Ladies
Night meetings. Typical
crowds for a Ladies Night fixture number in the tens of thousands,
so Aintree is predicting another bumper attendance for Peter Andre.
On
the night, gates open at 5:00pm, with the first of 6 televised races
being at 6:05pm. An additional support act will entertain the crowds
prior to Peter Andre appearing on stage at around 9:15pm, following
the final race of the evening.
Commenting
on the evening's line-up, Dickon White, Marketing Manager of Aintree
Racecourse said: "After our record-breaking Grand National
meeting, we are hoping that many racegoers will be back to sample
the magical atmosphere of racing at Aintree. The evening is another
highlight in the North West's social calendar and we expect to see
a spectacle of colour, as racegoers don the latest summer styles.
This will be Aintree's last fixture until Family Day in October."
Tickets
can be purchased at an advanced discount price of £12 until
Friday 30th April. After this, tickets will cost £15 with
accompanied children aged 16 and under going free. NUS card holders
and Senior Citizens can purchase a ticket on the night for £8.
Tickets allow access to all public grandstand areas. Restaurant
