Presented by music promoter Jockey Club Live, the shows will go up and down cities in England.

Speaking ahead of the shows, Kylie said: "I'm so excited to be performing at 'An Evening At The Races'. I have an amazing band and fabulous dancers and we can't wait to share my hits with you in a beautiful Summer outdoor show. Being from a horse racing city like Melbourne, I'll be sure to have a flutter on the horses myself!"

Racking up a huge total of 44 UK Top 40 hits throughout her career, Kylie's to perform on June 19 at Newmarket Nights, held at Newmarket Racecourse in Suffolk, before heading to Haydock Nights at Haydock Park Racecourse in Merseyside on June 20.
