A multi-talented entertainer, recording artist, record producer, songwriter and actor, Justin Timberlake has sold more than 54 million albums and 63 million singles globally throughout his career, with a further 70 million records as the lead vocalist of *NSYNC.

Justin has won armfuls of awards to date including 10 GRAMMY Awards across the pop, dance and R&B genres, four EMMY Awards and was nominated for an Oscar in 2017 for hit record Can’t Stop the Feeling. Earlier this year, Timberlake released his sixth studio album Everything I Thought It Was, featuring 18 brand new tracks including hit singles Selfish and No Angels.

His monumental world tour kicked off in April this year marking Justin’s return to the global stage after five years.

The Chelmsford date will mark the biggest ever single headline live show in Essex with an audience of up to 25,000 people and is presented in partnership with Chelmsford City Racecours and Live Nation promoters Cuffe and Taylor.

Racecourse Commercial Director Nathan Holmes said: “It’s incredibly exciting to be working in partnership with Cuffe & Taylor and Live Nation to bring Justin Timberlake to Chelmsford City Racecourse as a part of his The Forget Tomorrow World Tour.

“It’s a landmark moment for the venue where we have sought to bring the biggest international acts to Essex and establish ourselves as the leading destination for live music in the South East. Everyone has done an exceptional job in pulling this together and we can’t wait to see the public’s reaction”.

Cuffe and Taylor promoter Ben Hatton added: “Justin Timberlake is a true global star so to be announcing him as the first ever artist that we are taking to Chelmsford City Racecourse is quite a coup.

“This will be an amazing night that will live long in the memory for the people of Essex and beyond and we hope it is the start of an exciting new relationship with the team at the racecourse.”
