Humberside Police will be on hand to ensure a safe and successful fair. Chief Inspector Derek Hussain said: “It’s great to welcome Hull Fair back to the city for another year. We are working hard with Hull City Council and supporting the Showmen’s Guild to ensure everyone has a fantastic time.
“Hull Fair is one of the largest fairs in Europe and has been a part our history for many years. I have many enjoyable childhood memories of it! It is a great event for family and friends across our communities and welcomes visitors from afar.
“Our teams will be at the fair every day to make sure that both visitors and workers feel safe throughout the week. We will be happy to chat with you, even if it’s just to tell us which is the best ride! Whilst we want everyone who visits the fair to have an enjoyable time, I want to make it clear that those who come and commit crime or antisocial behaviour will be dealt with robustly by my teams to ensure that everyone else enjoys their time at the fair.
“If you have any concerns about anything you see at the event, please come and speak with the Hull City Council stewards or any of the police officers who will be on the podiums as they are every year. You can also get in touch by calling our non-emergency number 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. If someone is in immediate danger or there is an emergency, please call 999.”
