Great Value Train Travel
We're already a few weeks into the second season of Hull UK City of Culture. Routes and Roots celebrates Hull as the gateway to Europe and as a unique, international city.
There's plenty on in May to reflect this too, from a medieval European street festival, to a music event welcoming world-class acts from across the globe.
BBC Radio 1's Big Weekend
One of the UK's biggest live music events is coming to Hull on Saturday 27 and Sunday 28 May 2017. Acts to grace the Burton Constable Hall stage include Kings of Leon, Little Mix, Katy Perry and Stormzy.
50,000 free tickets for the two-day festival were snapped up within minutes by locals and music fans. It's set to be an incredible weekend if you were lucky enough to get your paws on a pass.
Bill Bailey's Cabinet of Curiosities
Funnyman Bill Bailey brings his cornucopia of curiosities to the Hull Maritime Museum from Saturday 27 May until Sunday 10 September.
