The 2024 Arnold Summer Fair will burst into life on Saturday, June 22 with a free day of family fun, events, workshops, and live music.
The Arnold Summer Fair takes place this Saturday, June 22nd at Arnot Hill Park and will run from 11am to 5pm – and the line up for the main stage has now been confirmed.
There will be performances from Burton Joyce Community Brass Band, The Parma Violets who are a stunning, all-female, three-part vocal harmony swing band. They will be playing alongside a host of performers including Jude Kirk, Chloe Dring and Lexa Lambert.
The live music stage will be closed by the excellent G.O.A Choir, a Nottingham-based choir who have collaborated with some of the finest acts in Nottingham including Natalie Duncan and Nina Smith.
The stage will be compered by Smooth FM’s breakfast host, Gareth Evans.
The event is being organised by Gedling Borough Council and as part of their 50th anniversary, there will be several events taking place across the fair to mark this important milestone, including special performances from Flying High Theatre Company highlighting the past, present and future of the borough.
This year’s poster artwork for the event was designed by Honey Williams, a Nottingham based artist who produces graphic designs and illustrations with her work inspired by art that recognises identity, race, music and history.
As well as the main stage, there will also be a host of activities happening around the park including circus performances, interactive skate and arts sessions, DJ workshops, and giant interactive musical instruments.
Lance Juby, Head of Communities and Leisure at Gedling Borough Council said: “We’re just a few days away from the big event and we are delighted to be announcing the full performance line up.
“This free event has been organised with the community to celebrate the council’s 50th anniversary and to celebrate the great, vibrant community we have in our borough. We look forward to welcoming residents and visitors alike for a day of fun and festivity.”
The Arnold Summer Fair is free to attend, making it an accessible and enjoyable day out for families and individuals of all ages. Join us in celebrating this milestone and enjoy a fantastic array of activities and entertainment.
