One of Nottingham's most popular events is set to return this summer after a two-year absence. The Riverside Festival was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to the Covid pandemic.
The festival, which takes places on Victoria Embankment, will be staged on Friday August 5 to Sunday August 7. The 2020 event would have been its 40th anniversary.
In 2019, the Riverside Festival attracted around 220,000 visitors. Highlights usually include a mile-long fun fair, two music stages, various river-based activities, food and drink stalls, and a Saturday night firework display.
