Mumsnet Nottingham Advent Calendar

[LocalEditorNottingham]

It’s the first of December – time to launch Mumsnet Nottingham’s 2016 Advent Calendar. Each morning, on Facebook and Twitter, we’ll feature a family-friendly event taking place that day. Almost all you can just turn up to, though some require ticket purchase.

That means we’re not featuring the many ‘meeting Santa’ events that require advance booking. Nor can we fit in every Christmas show or Christmas market. Please do check our full Christmas listings for all these and more.
