Welcome to the ultimate reset button for 2026! Friday Night Live! launches its sensational series at Wolverhampton Racecourse on 9th January, promising a night out that’s anything but ordinary. This event, masterminded by Arena Racing Company (ARC) and the social experts at INVADES, is the perfect fusion of thrilling sport and high-energy nightlife. If you’re looking to banish the post-Christmas blues, grab your crew, because this is the place to be.
This is a premier, televised fixture, bringing the action straight to viewers at home, live on ITV. But being there is where the real party is! You’ll witness seven fiercely competitive races, with the total prize money soaring in excess of £200,000. The calibre of horses and riders guarantees high-octane action on the All-Weather track, providing a genuinely exciting backdrop to your evening, even if you’re completely new to the sport. The intensity of racing under the floodlights is a visual spectacle you won't forget.
The atmosphere is where we elevate the experience. We are transforming the venue into a giant social hub, complete with dynamic live entertainment positioned throughout the course. All curated to keep the vibe buzzing between races and long after the last winner is called. Get ready for infectious music, incredible photo opportunities, and a crowd dressed to impress and ready to party all night long.
We know value is key, especially early in the year. That's why we've lined up special food and drinks offers across the venue. Affordable food and deals on popular beverages mean you can enjoy a full night out without stressing your budget. All this premier entertainment and top-class racing is available for an unbelievable price of just £12! Your weekend officially starts here.
