Things to do this week: R&B Mania at The Nest, Retro Football Fair and The Garage Saturday Market!

Morning! R&B Mania hits The Nest on Saturday. Six hours of 90s and 00s anthems, done by 9pm, which at our age is frankly the dream. Most tickets have gone already.

Sunday, same venue, the Retro Football Fair turns up with thousands of shirts. You'll walk in "just for a look" and walk out with a Boca Juniors third kit and no explanation for anyone at home.

The UK's leading football shirt market has been running for seven years and is coming to Nottingham for the first time, in partnership with Notts County. Thousands of football shirts from trusted sellers all under one roof, covering every era, every club and every kit you forgot existed until you see it hanging on a rail and suddenly need it immediately.

£3.50 to get in, which is either the best value Sunday you'll have all summer or the beginning of a very long conversation about wardrobe space.
