Pontefract Races today confirmed what we leaked briefly last week that Bananarama will be playing their 80s night after racing next May, 26th 2017This year’s night was headlined by Bucks Fizz and was a resounding success with the majority of racegoers packing into the parade ring for a hugely entertaining set of Fizz classics and medleys of some of the decades most memorable songs by other artists.
Bananarama have carved out a niche as purveyors of top 80s pop, a huge back catalogue of hits to pick from, Venus, Cruel Summer, Love in The First Degree, I Heard A Rumour, I want You Back and many many more.
We have seen the Nana’s at many Rewind type festivals and they are always one of if not the highlight, always a professional but fun set and one not to miss
The band will perform on the raised grass area next to the Parade Ring and will be on stage as soon as the horses have left the area after the running of the last race – between 9.20pm and 9.30pm.
Racegoers from all enclosures will be able to move to the Grandstand & Paddock Enclosure to watch the performance.
The audience is encouraged to go IN TO THE PARADE RING to watch the concert.
For safety reasons, after the last race, there will be NO ACCESS to the stepped area in between the raised grassed area and the Parade Ring.
A disabled viewing area is available in front of the saddling boxes. Should you need assistance, please ask one of the designated helpers in the hi-vis tabards.
Bars around the Parade Ring will stay open after the last race during the concert.
Last orders will be at 10.30pm.
