The Dragon Boat Challenge Nottingham also makes a welcome return with teams battling it out for charity followed by the annual Duck Race.

And of course who can forget the highlight of the weekend - the jaw - dropping firework display that kicks off at 10.30pm on Saturday night!

Nottingham City Transport will also be providing special shuttle buses which will return to the city centre straight after the fireworks.

Admission to the festival is free. Car parking charges apply.
