You'll have to speak up!
Sorry?
I SAID YOU'LL HAVE TO SPEAK UP!!!
Oh, OK. Only I can't hear you over the music. You see, as well as showing off the new MX-5 at the Goodwood Festival Of Speed this year, Mazda is also bringing along some live music, for its Raise the Roof four-day event within the Festival. It'll be located in the Goodwood House Stable Yard and will be entertaining the crowds who fancy a break from all the classic racing machines and supercars pounding up and down the hillclimb.
Raise the Roof will showcase 20 innovative artists in the intimate setting of the Goodwood House Stable Yard. From brass bands to a beatboxing flutist, Mazda will present an exciting line-up of boundary-pushing musicians on Goodwood's only live music stage.
Free and open to everyone attending the Moving Motor Show and Festival of Speed, the 'Raise the Roof' stage will sit in a unique open-air space within the classic walls of the Stable Yard where a series of decked areas will interconnect the stages and bar in an MX-5 themed experience zone. Live music will run each afternoon from Thursday 25th June until Sunday 28th June, while live DJs will keep the crowds entertained between acts.
Hosted by radio DJ Tom Ravenscroft, Mazda's 'Raise the Roof' stage will give Goodwood spectators the chance to see, hear and enjoy up and coming music acts before they go on to perform at major festivals across the summer. Away from the Stable Yard, the Mazda inspired Central Feature sculpture is set to be an unmistakable addition to the skyline over the Festival of Speed weekend.
Should be good fun then!
Yes. About half past two I think.
