The biggest ever Hockley Hustle will be an inspiring showcase of Nottingham’s music scene!
The epic all dayer has a packed programme of 350 acts showcasing the huge amount of talent and diversity of Nottingham’s live music scene including hotly tipped artists from BBC Introducing, a special Hustle line up at Broadway and loads of genre spanning stages put together by local promoters spread across 40 venues.
Jazz, drum & bass, poetry, soul, house, folk, hip hop, reggae and funk all find a place in this inclusive annual event that raises tens of thousands for local charities. Along with street entertainment, the famous silent disco, samba parades, magic acts, circus performers, graffiti artists and a collaboration with Nottingham Street Food, this homegrown, independent festival run with the help of a whole army of volunteers has come to represent the very best of Nottingham.

First ever time at Hockley Hustle and only really went because my lad was performing. However, we took full advantage of seeing as many acts and as many venues as we could fit in and what an amazing experience it was. Well organised, professionally run and so easy to exchange tickets and obtain wristbands (but not so easy to get them off)! Venue/act maps were easy to understand, street artists and food stalls were unique and created such a fantastic buzzing atmosphere. So good to do 'something different' and have an amazing time. Thank you Hockley Hustle - well done!
