Earth & Fire ceramics festival at Rufford Abbey Country Park

Every year we welcome the most exciting festivals of dance, theatre, literature and art to Nottinghamshire. Home to artistic and cultural activities all year round, the county is alive with events. Nottingham Castle and Lakeside Arts Centre offer outdoor theatre and music during the summer. And outside the city you’ll find a whole host of craft fairs, concerts and productions in our market towns and country parks.
