Lucky in Love - themed race night
Join us for a themed summer race night with a difference during Royal Ascot week!
Date: Thursday, June 17th 2010
Time: Gates open at 4.30pm, first race at 6.30pm, with free coach transfers to bars in Beverley at 9pm
Location: Beverley Racecourse
 |
 |
Round up your friends, colleagues, loved ones or simply come on your own and make it a night to remember!
Racegoers will have the opportunity to be given either a padlock or a key on arrival, to be worn on a Lucky in Love lanyard around your neck, and it’s up to you to spend the evening looking for the one that fits yours, with the chance of winning fantastic prizes.
This theme will act as an excellent way of getting racegoers talking to each other and having a good time while they try find the person with the padlock that fits their key. The padlocks and keys will be mixed up between men and women, so this is simply a fun race meeting that will see people networking – however, if anyone does happen to be looking for love then they may just meet their match in a horseracing setting. Lucky in Love Ladies will be circulating the enclosures encouraging people to try their keys and locks out with people they don’t already know. This will all be happening in the Premier Enclosure and Grandstand & Paddock Enclosure.
If you fancy a flutter, six races will be taking place throughout the night. The fun won’t end when the racing does either, with free coach transfers to bars in Beverley afterwards too.

About: Based in East Yorkshire, Lily Lolo was founded five years ago and is now an internationally recognised mineral makeup brand. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, so when you consider how many UK brands have created their own mineral cosmetics since the launch of Lily Lolo in 2005, it’s no wonder its founders can’t stop blushing.
Vikki Khan founded Lily Lolo after falling in love with mineral makeup overseas, loving the fabulous coverage from lightweight foundation, but hating the fact that no one in the UK could offer a range ticking all the boxes. Vikki wanted cosmetics which didn’t feel heavy on her skin, were free from harsh chemicals and most of all were affordable for every woman. Throwing caution to the wind, Vikki started up Lily Lolo and the rest as they say is history.
Today Lily Lolo is an award-winning mineral cosmetics range found in beauty salons across the UK, and overseas. We have achieved cult status by beautifully harmonising natural, chemical free ingredients with the ultimate in mineral based technology.
