BECKY Hill will perform at York Racecourse on Summer Music Saturday, June 27, in the second musical signing for the 2026 racing season. Tickets go on sale from today at www.yorkracecourse.co.uk.
The two-time BRIT Award winner for Best Dance Act, from Bewdley in the Severn Valley, rose to fame after reaching the semi-finals in the first series of The Voice UK in 2012.
Singer and songwriter Hill, 31, topped the UK charts with debut single Gecko (Overdrive, with Oliver Heldens) and has since posted Top 20 hits with Back & Forth (with MK and Jonas Blue); Wish You Well (with Sigala); Lose Control (with Meduza and Goodboys); Better Off Without You (featuring Shift K3Y); Heaven On My Mind (with Sigala).
The hits continued with Remember (with David Guetta); My Heart Goes (La Di Da, featuring Topic); Run (with Galantis); Crazy What Love Can Do (with David Guetta and Ella Henderson); History (with Joe Corry) and Disconnect (featuring Chase & Status).
Hill has released two studio albums, 2021’s Only Honest On The Weekend (peaking at number seven) and 2024’s Believe Me Now? (reaching number three), preceded by her 2019 compilation Get To Know.
Racegoers can expect a high-energy performance on the “Glastonbury-style stage”, after seven races earlier in the afternoon, as part of Hill’s busy tour schedule for 2026.
James Brennan, head of marketing and sponsorship, says: “It is great news that Becky Hill is debuting on the Knavesmire: a performer who knows how to entertain. It will herald a month for music and racing fans to remember.”
Racing and music fans can take advantage of a price freeze on adult general admission on the racecourse website, meaning that entrance to the main Grandstand and Paddock enclosure starts at £40 per person for a group of six. As well as free car parking, no booking fees apply on this route to purchase.
The racing action will feature seven thoroughbred contests with combined prize money approaching £300,000. The Group Three feature race over seven furlongs will be the Al Basti Equiworld Dubai Criterion Stakes.
Tom Grennan is confirmed already for the York Racecourse Music Showcase Saturday on July 25, performing after that Saturday’s race card. Tickets are on sale.
