Live After Racing at Chepstow Racecourse on 24 July 2026 kicks off at 3pm and runs through to 10:30pm. UB40 ft. Ali Campbell headline the evening, serving up classic reggae and dancehall hits. It's racing by day, live music by night — the full package.
The vibe
Picture this: afternoon at the track, then as the sun sets, the stage comes alive. You've got a captive crowd in a genuine racing venue, which means decent facilities and a proper party atmosphere. UB40's catalogue is built for outdoor summer nights — expect singalongs, feel-good energy, and people actually knowing every word.
Getting tickets
Tickets are available through Skiddle. Pricing and package options (which might include racing admission) are live on the event page. Book early, especially if you're planning to make a proper day of it and want grandstand access for the racing beforehand.
Where to stay
Chepstow sits right on the Welsh-English border, so you've got options either side. We've picked a few hotels within easy reach of the racecourse below — nothing fancy needed, but worth securing somewhere to avoid the post-gig drive home.
Getting there
Chepstow is accessible by rail from Cardiff (30 mins) and Bristol (45 mins), or direct from London Paddington via Bristol. If you're driving, the M48 Severn Crossing connects South Wales to the West of England — ample parking at the racecourse. Coming from Manchester or the Midlands? Aim for the M5 southbound and allow 3–4 hours.
