In partnership with Nonsuch and First Art, we’re showcasing the creative talents of our amazing Takeover volunteers, who’ve teamed up with artists and leading creatives to deliver exciting activities and plenty of family fun!

Expect a youth-led showcase of arts and creativity with performances and live art installations from talented local schools, colleges, and youth groups including West Notts College, Outwood Academy Kirkby, The Brunts Academy, Sutton Community Academy, Nottingham Trent University, Inspire Music, New Art Exchange and Garibaldi Youth Centre.

Listen to live music, epic DJ sets and get involved with interactive workshops—from mask-making and clay painting to DJing, print design, hip-hop dance, boxing, and even a Silent Disco!

Plus, don’t miss the chance to meet the inspiring young volunteer festival crew from Nottingham Trent University and Portland College, part of the driving force behind making this event come to life.

Full activities map coming soon!
