There are some changes this year in the way the traditional pub nights are held during "Race Week". Live music will be shut down nightly at 1AM this year. Organizers of the event and municipal council in Chester reached common ground on the issue during a meeting in March. The change is in response to numerous concerns and noise complaints raised by people who live near the Yatch Club - which is the main venue for evening after party's during "Race Week". Guests are still permitted on the property until 2AM.
