It started back in Summer 2021 when life was a bit of a strange one - COVID protectors were still in full force and everyone wanted to ensure that there safe and socially distanced – but on the other, we’ve been so bored cooped up inside during months of lockdowns that we’re desperate to get out there and have a good time while the sun’s out.
Enter Arboretum Sunsets—organised by DHP family, Nottingham’s favourite city park launched a major summer event series from June 26 to September 5, 2021, aimed at bringing people together and rekindling community spirit after the lockdown months. In 2022, the festivities were rebranded and consolidated into the Nottingham Beer Festival, a vibrant day and evening packed with celebrations, street food, live music, and more. Since then, this annual summer tradition has continued to light up the Arboretum, and it's set to return once again in 2025.
Just a short stroll from the city centre, it takes less than 10 minutes to walk from Market Square to the stunning, historic Arboretum Park. This hidden gem offers a peaceful escape from the city's hustle and bustle, providing a picturesque setting for an unforgettable evening of top-tier local and international beers, mouthwatering street food, and live music. Previous years have featured pop-up stalls from renowned breweries like Castle Rock and Camden Town, a diverse range of food vendors catering to all dietary preferences, and incredible performances from Nottingham’s finest musical talent. This year promises to be bigger and better than ever!
Be sure to not miss this years festivities set to happen on Saturday 23rd August, 2025.
