Nottdance returns for 2022, bringing you a season of dance and choreographic ideas and works.
As a site for experimentation, Nottdance has and continues to be a context to explore new ideas and new approaches in dance and choreography.

LOCAL TRAVEL
Most festival venues, and the festival hotel are walking distance from each other. A tram system serves the city alongside an award winning bus service. Each of the venues for the festival are all able to be reached via public transport and so we encourage you to use these services to avoid any parking issues and in the interest of encouraging an eco-friendly participation with the festival. Below you can find information around the public transport available between each of the venues.
TRAM – NET Tramlink
The trams in Nottingham all run through Nottingham train station. You can take the tram to two of the venues for the festival, both Lakeside Arts and Nottingham Contemporary.
Tickets for the tram must be purchased before boarding the tram so please allow time for this as you can’t purchase a ticket on the tram and may be fined for travelling without a ticket. Ticket machines are available at each tram stop.

Just select ‘Event Return’ on the ticket machines. A standard single ticket on the tram is £2.30. The ticket machines give change and you can also use debit/credit card to pay.
