What's On in Nottingham
Tuesday 11 August 2026 · This weekend · City guide
Nottingham might be running a quieter Tuesday than usual, but that just means all eyes are pointing in one magnificent direction. When the one event on offer is an immersive journey through the swirling, sunlit genius of Vincent van Gogh, honestly, you do not need anything else.
Highlights
Nottingham Beyond Van Gogh — Step inside the painting — literally. This breathtaking immersive experience wraps you in floor-to-ceiling projections of Van Gogh's most iconic works, from the burning spirals of Starry Night to the golden haze of his sunflower fields, all set to a carefully curated soundscape that makes the whole thing feel utterly alive. Motorpoint Arena Nottingham is transformed into something you would never expect from a sports venue, and at 5:30pm it is the perfect way to pull an ordinary Tuesday evening into something genuinely extraordinary.
