About the event

Broadway at Lakeside: Summer of Soul
In his acclaimed debut as a filmmaker, Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson presents a powerful and transporting documentary - part music film, part historical record - created around an epic event that celebrated Black history, culture and fashion. Over the course of six weeks in the summer of 1969, just one hundred miles south of Woodstock, The Harlem Cultural Festival was filmed in Mount Morris Park (now Marcus Garvey Park). The footage was largely forgotten... until now.

Summer of Soul shines a light on the importance of history to our spiritual well-being and stands as a testament to the healing power of music during times of unrest, both past and present. The feature includes concert performances by Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Sly & the Family Stone, Gladys Knight & the Pips, Mahalia Jackson, B.B. King, The 5th Dimension and more.

The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, where it won both the Grand Jury Prize and Audience Award.

Entry is from 7.30pm. Each screening will begin after sunset, as soon as it is dark enough to screen the film.

Screening outdoors at Lakeside, University Park, Lakeside Arts, Nottingham NG7 2RD. Please see Lakeside's website for information on how to get there.
