Saturday 26th September 11am – 4pm
The Big Wheel’s free one-day festival is back and promises to be bigger and better than ever with lots of great activities for all the family. We’re taking over the impressive grounds of Nottingham Castle for this spectacular arts and environment festival with everything you need to know about transport in Greater Nottingham.
The Big Wheel’s Big Day Out is a celebration of International in Town Without My Car Day. We want you all to leave the car at home and get to the event using sustainable transport. Walk or cycle, catch a bus, tram or train – even get out your space hopper and bounce – just try to go car-free for the day. As you’ll find out at the festival, it may help you to get fitter and healthier while saving some precious pennies.
To make it easier for you to get to our event by public transport – and to show you just how fantastic our transport network is – we’ve teamed up with NCT and trent barton to offer you some great travel discounts. Print off the travel voucher from our website here or look out for our flyers, which include a hardcopy of the voucher for you to cut out, to claim the great deals on the day. Read the terms and conditions.
Architects of Air’s stunning Luminarium will be back again this year – you can explore its colourful light and sound filled chambers for free! Click here for more information about these unique inflatable structures.
There’ll also be a mix of bands, DJs, workshops and activities, storytelling, street performers, a train ride and even some medieval arts and crafts! And lots, lots more…
The Big Wheel’s Big Day Out is a fantastic way to spend your Saturday and promises lots of exciting activities to keep everyone entertained. There’ll also be lots of tasty treats to buy with an assortment of food and drink stalls on offer – or why not bring a picnic to enjoy in the castle grounds?
