SUMMER SESSION HEADLINER
Legendary DJ and music producer Armand Van Helden will bring his signature sound and energy to Chelmsford, headlining the final night of Summer Sessions on Saturday 30th August.
With a career spanning decades and hits like “U Don’t Know Me,” “My My My,” and “Bonkers” (with Dizzee Rascal), Armand Van Helden has solidified his place as a pioneer in the electronic and house music scenes. Performing on the concert stage he will provide the soundtrack to our famous end of Summer party.
OUR RESIDENT DJ
Cross has been a mainstay of the London nightlife scene, having held residencies at Pacha, Fabric, XOYO, Archer Street, Cargo, and the Queen of Hoxton. He was the DJ requested by The Prodigy to open their end-of-tour gig at a sold-out Alexandra Palace and has previously been the warm-up DJ for Underworld, Basement Jaxx, Skepta, and Joy Orbison, to name a few.
As our resident DJ, Cross will be performing live after racing at Summer Sessions.
Chelmsford City Racecourse is delighted to announce that Level Head, the premium craft session IPA from Greene King Brewery, has been confirmed as the official sponsor of Summer Sessions 2025. Summer Sessions invites guests to embrace the best of summer—soaking up the sunshine, enjoying crisp craft beer or cocktails, cheering on thrilling races, and dancing under the evening sky. Whether opting for a sophisticated trackside experience or a more relaxed beer garden setting, attendees can create their perfect summer day.
