Winter Wonderland sets up in the centre each winter. Evenings and weekends are the busy sessions. A weekday afternoon is easier, and usually cheaper, if your timetable allows it.

Compare bills-included rooms, then choose a viewing time that suits you.
Go by tram or bus. The NET stops in the centre, and NCT buses run from Radford, Hyson Green and West Bridgford. Agree a meeting point by a stop before you leave. Looking for each other in the crowd is how the evening starts badly.
Take a charged phone and the ticket on it, not a screenshot from a group chat that will not load. Food inside the event is priced like event food. Eat before you go if the budget is tight.
If it is packed, or sold out, Wollaton Hall, the Contemporary and Broadway are the same season and a calmer night.
