Little Mix to headline Newmarket Racecourse's Summer Saturday Live

Since winning the 2011 series of The X Factor, Little Mix have sold over 7 million records, had two UK No.1 singles and two platinum albums ‘DNA’ and ‘Salute’.

With over half a billion YouTube and Vevo views worldwide, they’ve also successfully become one of Britain’s greatest exports with massive tours in the US, Australia and Japan – breaking the Spice Girls’ long-held record of highest debut US chart position for a UK girl group in the process.

Perrie Edwards, Jesy Nelson, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall have established themselves as one of British pop’s brightest acts with signature hits including ‘Move’, ‘Wings’, ‘DNA’ - and their insanely effervescent single ‘Black Magic’ which spent 3 weeks at No. 1.

Little Mix said: “We cant wait to come and see all of our fans at Summer Saturday Live at Newmarket in August! We love open air shows and promise an amazing day out - together we will give summer the perfect send off before school starts.”
