Hospitality & Private Box Information
Olly Murs hospitality at the 2027 racing nights
The two racing nights are where hospitality fits this tour most naturally. At both courses one ticket covers the race card and the concert, so a group arrives for the evening's racing and stays on course for the set. The Haydock Park night is a Saturday and the Newmarket night a Friday, six days apart.
Haydock Park Racecourse, Saturday 19 June 2027
Haydock Park sells its own restaurant packages and private boxes. Its Park Suite is listed as an all-inclusive premier experience with a three-course set menu, and its private boxes take up to 40 guests with a private bar and a dedicated box host; alcohol is served to over-18s only and ID may be requested. The racecourse has not yet said which of these run on the music night. The concert itself is open-air and standing, away from the grandstands. Travel and course details are on the Haydock Park Racecourse page.
Newmarket July Course, Friday 25 June 2027
Newmarket's music-night hospitality centres on its Trackside Pavilions, where guests can watch the concert from the pavilion's own decking area, and the Summer House Restaurant inside the Premier Enclosure. How a Newmarket Nights evening runs, enclosure by enclosure, is set out in our Newmarket Nights 2027 guide, and directions are on the Newmarket Racecourse page.
Who a racing night suits
A racing night gives a client group two events in one evening: a race card, then a full headline set. It suits teams who want a relaxed summer evening rather than an arena seat, and groups travelling from the North West (Haydock, close to junction 23 of the M6) or East Anglia (Newmarket, off the A11 and A14).
Premium and VIP Tickets
Where to watch Olly Murs at a racing night
At Newmarket the stage sits in the Premier Enclosure between Stands 2 and 3, facing the track; where to stand and which enclosure to book are on the Olly Murs at Newmarket page.
At Haydock Park the concert takes place away from the grandstands on grass and concrete, standing only, with no seating. The enclosures on sale for the night are the Grandstand and Paddock, County and Premier Lounge. Both nights are compared on the Olly Murs Tour 2027 page.
