Friday Night at Goodwood.
If you’ve been to one of Goodwood’s Three Friday Nights events, you’ll probably have seen the way the parade ring and winner’s enclosure are transformed into a dance floor.

It’s a sight to behold as the operations team lay the floor and get everything ready in the short half-hour window between the last race and the opening of the music set.

If you’ve not seen it, here’s your chance. We figured you wouldn’t want to sit through a whole half-hour video showing how it’s done so we may have speeded up the process just a little.

The footage begins with parade ring MC Philip Branning making his final announcements of the night and ends with Radio 1 and MTV favourite Zane Lowe getting the music started.
