On Sunday 4 June, the day will start at 12noon in West Gate, where visitors can enjoy street food while watching live performances in a dedicated busker area with family fun fair stalls on offer too.

Mansfield BID and Mansfield District Council, with event partners CANVAS and Mansfield 103.2, said the main stage set times for the music line-up on the Market Place is:

• 2.15pm – A Million Dreams performing as The Greatest Showman

• 3.15pm – The Harry Styles Experience

• 4.15pm – Dan Budd as Robbie Williams

• 5pm – Jono and Miss Margo Crowd Karaoke

The free stage show will be hosted by Jono Edwards and Mansfield 103.2’s Ian Watkins, with special guests including Miss Margo and the 103.2 radio crew. In between each act fun will include crowd karaoke, a battle of the bands dance off, and free giveaways.

Mansfield mayor Andy Abrahams said: “Party on the Market is just another fantastic example of what we can achieve by working in partnership with one another.

“The event is being funded jointly by Mansfield BID and Mansfield District Council and is shaping up to be a Sunday for which you just need to be in the town centre. There is something for all the family and plenty of free entertainment and activities; let’s kick-start the summer event programme with a day to remember!”

The council’s donation to the event came from the Destination Mansfield project, which is funded by the Government’s Towns Fund.

Jay Rowlinson, chief executive of Mansfield BID, said: “Our goal is simple, we are aiming to make Mansfield the event capital of Nottinghamshire, and this event is just one more step at getting us there.

“Bringing this high level of footfall to the town centre demonstrates to businesses further how committed all parties are to increase the vibrancy and traffic in the town centre, and in turn, it acts as a stimulus to give people a reason to get back into the town.”

Businessman Jono Edwards added: “Party on the Market is a celebration of community, culture, and entertainment, bringing people together in the heart of Mansfield. This is a great place to have a party!

“Everyone is getting behind this to bring the fun factor and a free day out, which none of us hopes to forget. This event will take place rain or shine, so I encourage all visitors to mark their calendars and come prepared for a fantastic day in the town centre.”

There will be road closures in place on Leeming Street and West Gate. Portaloos and a dedicated Changing Places facility will be available. A designated disabled viewing area at the front of stage will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.
