With Christmas just around the corner, there’s plenty happening across Hull and East Yorkshire to keep the festive spirit alive this week.
From heartwarming community efforts to indulgent festive feasts, there’s so much to celebrate. Across the city, individuals, businesses, and organisations are coming together to spread kindness and hope, helping those in need during one of the hardest times of the year.
We’ve also been diving into the season’s best treats, from Heavenly Desserts’ new winter menu full of indulgent sweet bites and creative drinks to Nova on Beverley Road, where hearty Polish Christmas dishes take centre stage. Inspired by family traditions in Poland, the festive menu includes fish on Christmas Eve and rich pork or chicken meals for Christmas Day.
If you’re looking for something to do before the Christmas madness truly begins, The Deep has transformed into a wintery wonderland with storytelling sessions inside a giant igloo and a closer look at aquatic animals thriving in extreme polar conditions. Over at Odeon, festive favourites like Elf, Home Alone, and Die Hard are back on the big screen. And Trinity Live is performing its final show of the festive season this Thursday, so don't miss your last chance!
