A free riverside festival outside the National Theatre on weekends (including Friday evenings) in July and August. There will be live music, dancing, DJs, family workshops and theatre.

Each weekend will showcase a different takeover by arts organisations, venues and companies including The Glory, HOME Manchester, nonclassical, and Sadler’s Wells. It ends in a finale closing night party with the National Theatre.

There are plenty of refreshments to go along with the entertainment from pop-ups like the Pizza Van, botanical cocktails from the Apothecary bar and the NT’s own pop-up bar The Understudy.
