Brand New Music Festival Launching at Chelmsford City Racecourse

A major new music festival headlined by global superstars and award-winning musicians will be held at Chelmsford City Racecourse.

Chelmsford City Live 2025 will take place next July with a capacity of up to 30,000 people each day.

Megastar Justin Timberlake will headline on Friday July 4 while local Essex boy Olly Murs will headline his biggest homecoming show there on Sunday July 6 with more headliner announcements to come.

Chelmsford City Live 2025 will host up to four standalone headline concerts giving music fans the option to attend single days or to buy a multi-day pass. All concerts will take place on non-race days.

Chelmsford City Live is a partnership between Chelmsford City Racecourse and Live Nation promoters Cuffe and Taylor.
