Statement from Nottingham Green Festival

Due to a policy change by our insurers, that we weren't informed of until now, we have had to cancel of some of our planned stallholders.

They won't provide the cover needed to any stalls promoting "political, religious or cultural issues".

☀️⚡ Britain’s solar power is breaking records!

Solar generation in 2025 has already surpassed the total for all of 2024, thanks to a surge in new installations & plenty of sunshine. 🌞

A clear sign that renewables are playing an ever-growing role in powering the UK grid🔋
British solar power surges past 2024 total
Good weather and rapidly proliferating farms mean solar generation is at record levels

Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉

Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace.
