Green Hustle Festival

About

Saturday 1 June 2024
Old Market Square
FREE event

Green Hustle Festival is a celebration of life and creativity that aims to make our city greener, healthier, and more connected. 

The free event returns to Nottingham city centre for one day in June with activities, creative workshops, a talks tent, live music, street entertainment, a pop up garden, and a community cafe serving pay-what-you-feel meals. Green Hustle will bring an inspiring programme right into the heart of the city featuring collaborations with local artists, organisations and community groups, uniting behind the theme ‘Common Ground’.

It's a great way to find out more about green issues and take away ideas for sustainable living, from making ethical purchases and tips for growing in pots and plots of all sizes, to steps individuals can take to effect change in their communities.

Green Hustle is also supporting Nottingham City Council's ambition to be carbon neutral by 2028, and the team from CN28 will be present at the festival to share what they're doing, to give everyone the chance to be involved and have their say. 

The festival will include:

• Main stage hosted by Cultural Vibrations Unity Through Music
• Community cafe from Himmah’s Shalom Salaam Kitchen, providing pay-what-you-feel meals
• Creative workshops from Dizzy Ink, Right for Flies 
• Street entertainment from Capoeira Nottingham, Circus Hub and Laura Decorum
• Pop-up accessible garden showcasing University of Nottingham research
• A market featuring independent sustainable retailers, including jewellery, skin care, zero waste, mushrooms, vegan treats and clothing
• Activity and information stalls from Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust, Keeping It Wild, the Environment Agency, Groundwork Greater Nottingham, Carbon Neutral Nottingham 2028, Bikeworks and more
• Talks tent featuring talks about gardening, de-paving the city, zero waste and more

Join in and be part of an epic party of positivity, hosted by an unparalleled cross-pollination of humans, from talented creatives to independent makers and cultural institutions.
