October events: Visit England's largest travelling fair in Hull

Don’t miss the lights, sights and smells of England’s largest travelling fair, with over 250 rides and attractions. This year, the fair rolls into Hull on 8 October and leaves on 16 October, giving you just over a week to enjoy the festivities.

Be flung skyward on the highest rides in Europe (not for the faint hearted), sample the famous Bob Carver fish and chips, brandy snaps and candy floss, and then try your luck on one of the many games and stalls that line the fair. Now settled in its Walton Street home, the fair is full of action and fun for all the family, and provides a spectacular light show at night too!
