Nottinghamshire County Council said it was “delighted” to be holding Nottinghamshire Day at Sherwood Forest for a second year.

It added the event would give a platform to some of the county’s young and up-and-coming performers.

The day festival will run from 10:00 until 16:00 and is free for punters with a £10 charge for car parking.
