The event runs from 11am till 2pm and is free to attend.
It will be a day packed with art, culture, food and free activities for people of all ages.
The festival invites people to ‘experience the vibrant spirit of Derby where community and creative unite’.
There will be several workshops running throughout the course of the day including one for children. Tickets are required for these, which are bookable on the Artcore website.
