What's On in Nottingham
Monday 09 November 2026 · This weekend · City guide
Nottingham is pulling in two very different directions on this Monday in November, and honestly, both of them are irresistible. From a muddy car boot site transformed into a big-top spectacular to one of Ireland's biggest rock bands filling an arena, the city has no interest in letting the working week get off to a quiet start. Wrap up warm, get the tickets booked, and let Nottingham surprise you.
Highlights
Planet Circus OMG presents -Daredevils Stunts OMG! Hucknall — Who says Mondays are boring? Planet Circus rolls into the Hucknall Car Boot Site at 4:30pm with a jaw-dropping showcase of daredevil stunts that will have kids and grown-ups alike gripping their seats. This is old-fashioned, heart-in-your-mouth entertainment under the big top, the kind that reminds you why live performance is so utterly irreplaceable. Tickets run from £10 to £19, making it a genuinely affordable family adventure to kick off the week.
The Script — The Script bring their anthemic, emotionally charged rock to Motorpoint Arena Nottingham at 6:30pm, and if you know their catalogue, you already know this is going to be a night of communal catharsis on a grand scale. Few bands have a knack quite like theirs for filling an arena with warmth and making every single person feel like the songs were written just for them. Check the website for ticket availability and pricing — but do not leave it too long.
