We’ve loved Hull Fair ever since we were kids, so the news of its return this year has us excited! There is nothing better than chowing down on some cotton candy or playing some of the fair games like hook-a-duck. It seems we aren’t the only ones who are excited about the Hull Fair 2025 return this October.
One of the oldest running and largest fairs in Europe, Hull Fair, announced via Facebook that it will be returning on Friday, 10th October, until Saturday, 18th October. The iconic fair will have all the usual attractions and rides such as fun houses, sweet stalls, burger vans, helter skelters and mini versions of roller coasters and waltzers.
Expect over 250 rides and attractions, old and new, from one of the biggest travelling fairs in Europe. Hull is recorded as the oldest fair, having records that go back more than 700 years to 1278.
It is now in its 730th year and is the largest travelling fair in Europe, which sees hundreds of thousands of people descend upon it each year. As the nights draw in, it won’t be long until Hull’s Walton Street is once more flooded with dazzling lights, smells of fried onions and tunes pumping out from the fairground rides.
New rides, including this year, are Skyfall, the tallest ride of its kind in the UK, standing at 80m tall and the tallest drop ride to ever attend Hull Fair.
Where is Hull Fair 2024?
It can be found alongside the MKM Stadium in Walton Street car park. The postcode is HU3 6JR. You are best finding car parking spaces further afield and heading to the fair on foot as it can be very busy all year round. It’s located outside the city centre but can be walked to from the train station. I
The fair is set to be open from 5pm-11pm on the first Friday. On the two Saturdays of the fair, it will be open from 12pm-11pm. From Monday to Friday, it will open from 2pm-11pm.
How much is it to enter Hull Fair 2024?
Hull Fair 2023 is free entry, and rides and attractions range from £1 to £3 to £4 for the bigger rides. With food and drink varying in price, also.
We can’t wait to stuff our faces with candy floss and hot dogs before going on some of the carni rides!
