Nature, rituals, misconceptions and community: we hear from the organisers of Nottingham Pagan Market

Sat 19 Apr 2025

After a long winter it’s easy to see why our ancestors created rituals and festivals to celebrate the coming of spring. With the Pagan festival of Beltane on the horizon, the Nottingham Pagan Market returns to Sneinton Market later this month with a Beltane special. With live music, independent makers, dance, talks, guerrilla theatre, and more, we spoke to organisers Dee Miller and Esme Knight to find out what to expect and discover why more people are turning to Paganism to find a spiritual connection…

Gig review: The essence of "____" at The Bodega

Fri 18 Apr 2025

When Corder, co-founder of local promoters Nottalott, set up his first event in March of last year entitled 'The Essence of Punk', the feedback and support for the event was overwhelmingly positive. It was only honourable that 12 months later he would put on a second - more enigmatically titled - event, not only to mark the anniversary, but to celebrate what the first event achieved: a platform to champion local talent, as well as to support local causes...

Our picks from the 2025 event calendar of the Malt Cross: Nottingham's preserved Victorian music hall

Wed 16 Apr 2025

There are few locales near Old Market Square quite like the Malt Cross. As a nearly perfectly preserved Victorian music hall, the building toes the line between its status as a treasure trove of architectural history, and an epicentre of some of the city's most enjoyably 'out-there' occasions. Below, we've provided a rundown of what they have coming up this year...

Gig review: Primal Scream at Rock City

Tue 15 Apr 2025

Primal Scream are stone-cold legends of British music. From fusing rock-and-roll with the burgeoning acid-house scene to delirious effect on 1991’s masterpiece Screamadelica, through the brash vitriol and anger of 2000’s XTRMNTR and the pop-flecked Chaosmosis, their restlessness and ability to wrap disparate genres around their inimitable core of emotionally weighty songwriting has secured their position as one of the most vital bands of their generation...

Theatre review: Chicago razzle dazzles at the Royal Concert Hall

Tue 08 Apr 2025

Time reveals two types of art: that which dates and that which seems timeless. One year shy of a century since it was written, and fifty years since its musical stage debut, Chicago is firmly in the second category. This week, the Royal Concert Hall plays host to the antics of Roxie, Velma and the other ‘Merry Murderesses’ of the Cook County Jail, in a show so full of pizazz it may have even invented the concept.
