Jessie J has been announced as the fourth and final headliner for Party in the Paddock at Newbury Racecourse, performing live after racing on Saturday 15 August as part of the Visit Malta Hungerford Weekend.
The chart-topping star will return to the Berkshire venue 14 years after her record-breaking, sold-out headline performance in 2012.
Tickets for Jessie J will go on priority sale at 10.00am on Thursday 26 February for fans who register for free, with general sale opening at 10.00am on Friday 27 February. Adult tickets start from £34.00, with U18s from £16.00. Free parking is available.
Jessie J first rose to global prominence with hits including ‘Price Tag’ and ‘Domino’. With multiple number one singles, she is renowned for her powerhouse vocals, dynamic live performances and her role as a coach on The Voice.
In 2025, she released her sixth studio album Don’t Tease Me With a Good Time, her first full-length project in nearly eight years, showcasing deeply personal songwriting and marking a powerful new chapter in her artistic evolution.
Fans can expect to hear her biggest hits and more when she takes to the stage this summer.
Jessie J said: “I can’t believe it’s been 14 years since I last headlined Party in the Paddock. I had such an amazing time when I was there before, so I’m really excited to be coming back this summer and hope to see some familiar faces!”
