ADVANCE bookings have been stopped for racing and the Olly Murs show at York Racecourse.

A spokesman for the racecourse said the event, on Saturday, July 1, has proven so popular that the County Stand, Grandstand and Paddock areas had all sold out.

The Course Enclosure, also known as the Picnic Enclosure, will still be open to sales from 11.15am on the day, with tickets costing £10 for adults, £8 for over-65s and free for accompanied under-18s. Some places are still available in the Ebor and Voltigeur Restaurants - where prices start from £199 and include food.

Tickets for the Music Showcase Weekend are still available in all areas for Jess Glynne on Friday, July 28, and All Saints on Saturday, July 29. For more information, phone 01904 638971 or go to yorkracecourse.co.uk.
