British pop legends Madness are set to rock the stage at Chelmsford City Racecourse this evening.
The band will be playing at the racecourse as part of their Grandslam tour, which is running until September and takes in 19 sporting venues around the country.
Madness, who completed a sell-out arena tour last year, will play well known hits including House of Fun and Baggy Trousers and will also perform some of their first new recordings in three years.
A spokesman from Chelmsford City Racecourse said “We are expecting a sell-out day and anticipate that this event will firmly secure Chelmsford City Racecourse as a premier destination for Music as well as Racing.
“It’s wonderful to host this Concert at the heart of the region here at Chelmsford City Racecourse.
“Madness are the band of the people, who inject fun into everything they do and this tour promises to be a once in a lifetime opportunity to see one of the greatest bands in the world play Chelmsford City Racecourse.”
