Visitors to Rockingham this weekend (6/7 September) can expect a party atmosphere when the Northamptonshire circuit hosts live music throughout Saturday's full motorsport programme of practice, qualifying and racing from the UK's premier tin-top race series.
Once the track action has finished, DJ A-Roxx will get the fans jumping with his warm-up set before Rick Parfitt Jnr and his legendary RPJ Band take to the Rockingham stage with a performance guaranteed to leave the crowd breathless, smiling and crying out for more.
One of the UK's top event bands Jelly Hammer will headline the evening with electro-pop nineties dance music, mash-ups and current pop before DJ A-Roxx closes the event with another fantastic set.
There will also be a special Rockingham Food & Drink Village where visitors can watch the racing, listen to the music or just relax while sampling a selection of delicious and mouth watering delights.
In addition to a wine bar, there will be more than 12 real ales, Czech beers and artisan ciders to choose from, while gourmet burgers, a rare breed hog roast, stone baked pizza, balti curry, Mexican burritos and homemade ice cream/sorbet will be available from the food stands.
