CommuniTree Festival Returns for its Third Year!

We’re really pleased to share that CommuniTree Festival has received Arts Council England funding for the third year running.

This support allows us to continue building a festival that grows from the communities it serves, creating space for music, creativity, culture and connection across Nottingham.

For 2026, we’re excited to be working with new partners, including Bulwell Arts in Bulwell and Arkwright Meadows Community Gardens in The Meadows. These partnerships will help us bring the festival into different parts of the city, working with local people, artists and community spaces to shape events that feel rooted, welcoming and meaningful.

This year’s programme will also support new talent from Nottingham, including emerging musicians, young creatives and workshop artists. CommuniTree Festival has always been about opening doors, creating opportunities and giving artists space to share their work with their communities.

Our headline event will take place at Wollaton Hall and Deer Park, where we’ll be hosting a special festival gathering. More details about this and the wider programme will be shared soon.

We’re grateful to Arts Council England for supporting the festival again, and to all the artists, partners and communities helping bring CommuniTree Festival 2026 to life.

More to come soon.
