Old school rock and punk fans will be amongst those awaiting the arrival of several big tours to Nottingham before the end of the year, with still plenty more for fans of other music.
Two hometown heroes are set to perform in the city before the end of 2024, with Pitchshifter and earthtone9 set to once again cause a ruckus when they take to the stage throughout November and December, giving the “Britpop” revival a run for its money with two of the “Midlands Metal Scene” finest performing at Rock City.
Elsewhere, IDLES cap off their two-night residency in the city, while Jamie Cullum and Paul Heaton add a little more “calm” with their performances in Nottinghamshire before the end of 2024. There’s also room for a little Richard Hawley, we hope, on your calendar too.
Tickets for many of the shows we’ve listed are on sale through either Ticketmaster UK or See Tickets, but hurry before they sell out - especially when it comes to those shows taking place this week.
