Chester Race Company have released an artist impression of how the famous Roodee is going to look for the two day Chester Rocks music festival on Saturday 2nd July and Sunday 3rd July. The city’s historic walls will form the backdrop for a huge stage and lighting rig with large screens either side to ensure that no one misses out on any of the performances. With crowds of approx. 15,000 expected for both days of the event it is set to become one of the biggest outdoor music events in the North West. As well as two full days of performances from the biggest national and international stars of Pop, Rock, Indie and Dance festival-goers will be able to enjoy elements of a traditional music festival and still be based directly in the city centre including festival performers, trade stands and a range of catering options.
Saturday is shaping up to be one of the best family events of the year, in addition to Pop Superstars such as; The Wanted, McFly, The Saturdays and Taio Cruz there will be another 10 bands performing on the Dawsons’ Alternative Stage headlined by Chester all-girl group Indigo City. There will be a host of free family activities available on the day including bouncy castles, face painting and high wire climbing, there will also be a funfair, magicians, buskers and performers throughout the day. Sunday is all about the Rock with Iggy & the Stooges, Feeder, Australian Pink Floyd Show, Leftfield and many more with 11 of the best local acts on the Dawsons’ Alternative Stage.
To celebrate the first year of this brand new event the Race Company have developed a very special offer; Rob March, Head of Marketing & Communications commented; “We wanted to come up with something really special for people who buy their Chester Rocks tickets early for the first year of the event , anyone who has already bought their ticket or buys before Friday 24th June will be able to claim a FREE Chester Races ticket. For the Saturday we are offering FREE Open Course tickets to our popular Family Funday on Sunday 31st July and anyone buying tickets for the Sunday can claim a FREE Dee Stand ticket for Saturday 20th August. We think this is a great way to reward people who are supporting the first year of the event and what better way to say thank you than a free day at the races. In addition we are also running our Special Family Offer which means a family of 4 can save £50 on either day of Chester Rocks”
