Working in partnership with Nottingham’s world-class venues including Nottingham Playhouse, Lakeside Arts Centre, Nottingham Contemporary, New Art Exchange and Nottingham Trent University, Nottdance Festival can also be found in alternative venues such as night clubs, independent venues and galleries, shopping centres and public spaces. The Nottdance Festival reaches across the city in a cultural collaboration. You can see the events until the 17th March. Explore Nottingham with the ‘Official Outlaw’ Robin Hood and discover the truth of the legend. Follow a trail of historical facts and learn how simple ballads over 700 years old grew into one of the greatest stories ever told. This is running from Saturday for a week starting at 2pm. We hope you enjoy your weekend whatever you do, and remember to share your experiences with us via Facebook and Twitter.
