The Goodness - Fridays @ Billy's
Live music and resident DJs host weekly parties at Billy's in Nottingham.
Looking for things to do in Carlton this weekend? You can find a mix of live music across genres, with events running from Friday through Sunday. As the weekend starts, local pubs and clubs begin to fill up, offering late-night sets and themed parties. Head to venues along Great North Road for a range of styles, from underground house to indie and drum and bass. On Saturday and Sunday, there are more options to relax, whether it’s a day party or a long evening at a club. You’ll find smaller gatherings in pubs, along with chances to experience the city’s nightlife scene through well-connected transport links.
You can find club culture events at venues across the city, with moderate nightlife intensity. Public transport makes getting around easy, trams and buses run regularly, and a direct train from Carlton to Nottingham opens up more options. Use the tram to reach venues across town, or take a short drive to places like Calluna or Billy’s, both a short drive away. Remember, parking near Highfields Park can be tight during events, so skip the car and use the train. The River Trent is nearby, and some events may take place waterside. Check the listings below for times and venues.
