The event is listed by Visit Nottinghamshire as taking place at the National Justice Museum, with the museum presenting the Crime Club format as a way to examine infamous cases from history through real crimes, real stories and real evidence.

Visitors should note that some of the material covered may be sensitive in nature. The source listing does not give further detail on specific content warnings, so the age restriction and sensitivity note are the clearest guidance available for deciding whether the evening is suitable.

Charlie Peace and Victorian crime history

The June session focuses on Charlie Peace, a figure described in the event listing as one of Victorian Britain’s most notorious criminals. Active from the 1850s to the late 1870s, Peace was regarded in his own lifetime as a prolific and elusive professional criminal in England.

The talk is expected to explore the reputation he built through ingenuity, disguises and false identities. The listing also notes that he repeatedly evaded capture and frustrated police forces across multiple counties, including Nottinghamshire.

That Nottinghamshire connection gives the event a local thread beyond the broader Victorian crime story. For visitors interested in the history of policing, justice and public fascination with crime, the session places a national criminal figure inside a regional context.

What the evening includes

Crime Club is framed around historic crime cases rather than fictional mystery entertainment. The National Justice Museum’s listing highlights evidence, case stories and the real-world details behind infamous offences.

The June event is specifically described as a chance to see an instalment people may have missed the first time. That makes it most useful for regular Crime Club attendees who could not attend in March, as well as first-time visitors drawn by Victorian criminal history.

The ticket includes a free drink. No food offer, transport advice or accessibility details are included in the supplied event information, so visitors should rely on the confirmed listing details when planning.

Who should consider booking

The event is best suited to adults with an interest in crime history, Victorian Britain, policing, court stories or the National Justice Museum’s justice-focused programming.

It may also appeal to people looking for an evening event in Nottingham that is more structured than a general museum visit. The 6pm start time puts it in the early evening, and the over-18 restriction means it is not presented as a family session.

Anyone planning to attend should book in advance, as the listing states that booking is essential. Tickets are £16.50 full price or £15.50 concessions for the Thursday 25 June event at the National Justice Museum.
