Right how do I sell Hull to the missus, she’s not buying that Hull is a top 10 city in the UK now

Wife has already found accommodation at Bridlington, halfway between Hull and Sunderland
I was going to book here in Bridlington but the special offer started the day after hull instead of day of hull so I couldn’t bring myself to do it. Weird offer as it’s half term so why not allow the Sunday

I did this once and only found 1 fish
Fish Trail
Hull has several trails which will help you see the city in a different way and discover areas you never knew existed. One of the most renowned is the Fish Trail, which is unsurprising when you consider the city’s rich fishing and maritime heritage. This unique piece of public art sees explorers...

I had a good break in Hull during a trip away in 2020 when covid restrictions allowed.It’s had a lot of work done since we were last there, for one thing Clive Sullivan Way, the A63 and effectively the other end of the M62 is free of roadworks for the first time in my living memory of being in the North (20 years)
There was a lot of tarting up done for the city of culture a few years ago, and although the city is a bit rough and has suffered from the fishing industry collapse, there are some great boozers.
Hull has a long interesting history and they do try to make a thing of it. William Wilberforce etc. I like the people, funny (especially with that accent!!! “There’s a fern curl from Turkeeyooo” “errr nurrrr snurrr” “kerkercurler”. Have a guess at translations)
Bit further afield Withernsea is an old fashioned seaside town, and Beverley is a beautiful little market town.
The Deep, the Aquarium, is as impressive as any I've seen in the UK. The Wilberforce House Museum and Streetlife Museum (mainly transport related stuff) also good.
Also had a day trip to Beverley and Bridlington.
And as mentioned plenty of good pubs.

Bring back the good old days when you could change at Doncaster for a clapped out three car multiple unit with added diesel fumes . Atmosphere! but not too comfortable.

For some, travel to Hull and Sunderland is planning for a late October a long weekend in the North East over half term.
We’ll see if there’s an uptick in the GPG divorce rate or children disowning a parent, when their mates get back to school tanned and talking about their trip to the Canary Islands.

I am aware of that , in fact doing a similar thing but I am going to Hull first then Sunderland . The poster I was responding to was talking about travelling from Kings Cross to Newcastle . I simply wondered why one would go there first. It’s a fair distance from there back to Hull.

Trainsplit is best to give you an idea. You can then go and buy from another supplier without any fees, eg Hull trains, LNER etc.
Trainline charges a £1 fee

Not too sure how it is on a game day but do highly recommend Humber Street for some good food options, food for cowboys is another great shout. And like others have said, Beverley is a great market town.

Superb!!! I took my son to Costa del Grimsby at the same juncture last season for our cup match and we had a ball!

Yes I did that too it seems to work well with half term!
We were on the silly train that was stuck and turfed us all off at some village

Watching Hull v Everton today, 1400 KO. Bright sun directly into the Everton fans faces in the away corner. Cap/shades a good idea if forecast similar for our game in a fortnight.

Hull, Yorkshire—an English port town with a defiant spirit
With 800 years of maritime history, this northern town is going all in on its seafaring past in 2026 with revamped museums, docks, and preserved ships. See why its laid-back charm is so hard to resist.

Anyone? @Pauly Paul
Coming from the South on Sunday but afterwards going North. My googling and AI tells me the best play is to park at Hull Royal Infirmary. 630p for four hours.
Is this a good plan or does anyone have any better local knowledge or ideas.

When I went in 2020 for the 5-1 they had a load of parking on fields by the ground. It was inexpensive enough that I can’t remember how much (cf my last trip to Huddersfield where I’m still going HOW MUCH at the £17 they charged).

Have previously parked on walton street car park but is a nightmare to get out of, have also parked at colonial st car park or st stephens car park when going to the rugby there, bit of a trek but a lot better to get out of

That sounds about right. Plenty of cheap all day parking near the hospital and city centre. Parkopedia app is usually accurate.
