Talking to Sussex World following the final event that took place, James Crespi, Director of Goodwood Racecourse, said: "Our three consecutive Three Friday Nights featuring horseracing and world-famous DJs have been an extraordinary success, drawing in thousands of locals from the South of England.
“Our goal for the event series is to offer a unique experience that combines the excitement of horse racing with the energy of world-class DJ performances – and it’s safe to say we did that!
“We've been delighted by the fantastic turnout and the overwhelming positive response, with two of the three events completely selling out. We can’t wait for next year!”
