During Nottinghamshire's final home Championship fixture, supporters can explore The Creativity of Cricket programme, a series of exhibitions, talks, readings and artistic displays taking place around Trent Bridge from Thursday 24 to Sunday 27 September.
Whether you're interested in cricket history, literature, photography or visual art, there will be something to discover throughout the four days.
Photography Exhibition: Beyond the Boundary
Running each day from 10am to 4pm in Squash Court 2, Beyond the Boundary reveals details, shapes, geometry, fragments, shadows, patterns, reflections and features of Trent Bridge that are often overlooked by the casual observer.
Squash Court 2 is located opposite the Library in the Ticket Office building.
Talks, Poetry and Cricket Stories
A number of special talks and readings will take place during the match intervals across the four days.
On Thursday, visitors can enjoy A Select XI, a lunchtime talk exploring cricket fiction and some of the sport's finest literary works.
Friday's lunchtime session, Cricket in Verse, will feature poetry readings inspired by the game, with a particular focus on Nottinghamshire cricket and some of the county's most memorable figures.
On Saturday, a lunchtime talk will look back at Nottingham Cricket Club's first-ever first-class match in 1826, offering a fascinating insight into the early history of cricket in the city.
All talks and readings will take place in Squash Court 2 during the lunch interval.
Meet the Maker
Supporters will also have the opportunity to meet Michael Brown, creator of the Library's striking stained-glass window.
Michael will be available during tea intervals on Thursday and Friday, and during both lunch and tea intervals on Saturday, providing visitors with the chance to learn more about the inspiration and craftsmanship behind the piece.
These sessions will take place in the Library.
Cricket Through Art
Across Saturday and Sunday, artist Katie Barnsley will be painting the match live from 9.30am until 3.30pm.
Members can watch her work develop throughout the day in The Clubhouse, located in the Derek Randall Suite on the first floor of the Hound Road Stand.
Open to all 2026 and 2027 members, The Clubhouse offers a welcoming space to relax, with bars serving alcoholic, soft and hot drinks, alongside ice cream and a range of food options.
