Last year it launched with four promoters: Queer Up Duck's exhibition, a Queer Notts zine, the city's first ever ballroom from Queerish, Unamed Drag at The Lord Roberts. This year it's grown.

Billy Bootleggers Downstairs, Movers and 4 more queer-led venues. See them all

Montana. Alcohol-free, all ages with an adult.

Wake the Lion

On the wristband

Two hours of feel-good dancing on a Sunday afternoon, and not a drop of alcohol. Let go completely, find your inner strength, or just groove with a coffee in hand. Kids welcome with an adult, so bring the whole crew and find your roar.

Venue details

Broad Street and Hockley. Follow the drums.

The Hustle Parade

Free

The famous Hockley Hustle Can Samba parades go out at 3pm and 6pm, with smatterings of other parading through the day. The flashmob kicks off right after the 3pm one, so if you find the parade you've found both.

Broad Street, straight after the parade.

Step N Groove flashmob

Free

Last year hundreds of you danced in the rain. Since then Charmaine and the crew's routine to Nights Like This has gone round the world. In the lead-up they're running workshops with ACNA Centre and Open Wings; on the day everyone's invited to the flashmob and performance straight after the parade. Please bring the boots anyway.

and some of Notts' best voices, in one church.

Ten years of Ian Burton's orchestra with guests from across the Hustle's history: Liam Bailey, Rob Green, Tiger from Divorce, Nina Smith, Harlieghblu, Alfie Sharp. Spine-tingling amid the chaos. It fills, so get there early. This year's vocalists are on the lineup page.
