Sunday 7 May: The grounds will be open again for the screening of the Coronation Concert, broadcast live from the grounds of Windsor Castle and featuring top international acts.

Tickets are on sale now and can be booked via the What’s On Nottingham website.
In the event of all tickets not being sold or tickets not being used on the day more than 3 hours after the advertised event start time, free admission will be granted on a first-come, first-served basis however, this cannot be guaranteed.
