SUMMARY:Goole Docks Walking Tours
DESCRIPTION:Join one of Goole Civic Society’s FREE walking tours to explore Goole’s historic docks\, which were first developed by the Aire and Calder Navigation Company ahead of the town’s official opening in July 1826. \nBy the early 20th century\, Goole had become the tenth largest port in the United Kingdom. Today\, elements of the original Georgian port layout remain\, along with docks and locks developed in the 19th and early 20th centuries\, and evidence of the town’s coal shipping past. See them for yourself on this fascinating tour\, which will also reveal some of the docks’ secrets\, including its role in the construction of the Mulberry Harbours engineered by the British military during World War II. \nLed by professional guides Sarah Cowling and Michele Thompson\, these tours will visit the dock via a public right of way\, as well as Dutch Riverside and Bridge Street.    \nThey will set off from The Lowther Hotel on Aire Street at 10.30pm\, 1pm and 4pm on Saturday 18 July\, and at 10.30pm\, 1pm and 3pm on Sunday 19 July.

SUMMARY:Goole 'Company Town' Walking Tours

Although only small sections of the original Company Town remain today\, they are still of great significance and include a Georgian ‘lock-up’\, a Victorian former theatre\, one of England’s oldest purpose-built hotels and Georgian shop fronts.  \nLed by professional guides Sarah Cowling and Michele Thompson\, these informative walking tours are an opportunity to find more about why Goole was built and the events that have shaped its 200-year history.  \nThey will set off from The Peacock on East Parade\, Goole (DN14 5RB) at 10.30pm\, 1pm and 3pm.

SUMMARY:Goole Vikings RLFC Open Training Session
DESCRIPTION: On the morning of Saturday 18 July\, Goole Vikings RLFC will throw open the gates of the Victoria Pleasure Grounds so that supporters can watch the first team squad train ahead of their Betfred Championship fixture\, away at Whitehaven on Sunday.  \nThe open training session\, which takes place from 10.30am until 12 noon\, will give fans the opportunity to watch preparations at close quarters before meeting members of the squad.  \nIn the afternoon\, the focus will turn to a high-profile rugby league clash\, as a Hull KR XIII face a Leigh Leopards XIII at 1.30pm. The visit of Hull KR brings the 2025 quadruple winners to Goole following a remarkable season in which the Robins claimed the Super League Grand Final\, League Leaders’ Shield\, Challenge Cup and World Club Challenge titles.  \nIt’s hoped that both the Super League trophy and World Club Challenge trophy will be on display at the Victoria Pleasure Grounds during the day\, giving supporters the opportunity to see the silverware and have photographs taken alongside it.  \nThe visit of the Robins is also a fitting nod to rugby history in the town. Goole and Hull Kingston Rovers were both founding members of the Yorkshire Second Competition in 1898\, alongside clubs including Featherstone Rovers and York\, creating a sporting link stretching back more than 125 years.  \nIt’s free to attend the open training session\, but ticket information for the rugby league fixtures is available through the respective club websites.  \n\n Goole Vikings and Goole AFC have joined forces to deliver a packed three-day programme celebrating 200 years of Goole\, featuring four matches across football and rugby league and the chance to meet the Vikings first-team squad at an open training session. See each of the individual event listings for further details.

SUMMARY:Goole Model Boat Club Open Days
DESCRIPTION:Formed in 1997\, Goole Model Boat Club occupies a site on South Dock\, Goole\, where\, many years ago\, a pond was built for club members to exercise their fleet of impressively turned out model craft. The club meets every Saturday morning throughout the year and is opening its gates to the public as part of the Waterways Heritage Festival\, which is organised by the Yorkshire Waterways Heritage Society. Demonstrations will take place throughout the weekend and a small\, pop-up pond will be created to allow children to try their hand at piloting model craft. \nHistoric Objects: Throughout the weekend\, there will be opportunities to see elements of Goole’s industrial history up close. Goole Model Boat Club’s base is also the site of the iconic No 5 Coal Hoist\, a Grade II-Listed Building\, one of the last surviving Tom Pudding compartment boats and other items that serve as a poignant reminder of the importance played by the movement of coal in the development of the town’s port. There’s no access to the coal hoist\, but it’s an impressive monument to an industry that spanned more than 150 years. \nBicentenary Flotilla Viewpoint: On the afternoon of Saturday 18 July\, between 2pm and 4pm\, Goole Model Boat Club will offer the perfect vantage point from which to view the Bicentenary Flotilla of Vessels. Don’t miss the chance to enter the Yorkshire Waterways Heritage Society and Goole Model Boat Club’s photography competition! \nPop-up Exhibition – Railway on the Water: View an amazing collection of photographs taken in 1974 by photography student Duncan Davies\, who spent a day onboard the Tom Pudding tug\, Wheldale. The portfolio that he created captures the crew’s journey between Goole and Doncaster\, and their return journey\, loaded with coal. There will also be opportunities to see a video of the coal hoist operating have your questions answered by a former coal hoist operator. \nAccess during this weekend: Goole Model Boat Club will be open from 10am to 6pm on Saturday 18 July and 10am to 4pm on Sunday 19 July. The site must be accessed on foot from Dutch River Side\, where there is roadside parking. Please note that there is no public parking on site during this event.

SUMMARY:Bicentenary Flotilla Photography Competition
DESCRIPTION:As part of its Waterways Heritage Festival\, which is taking place across the weekend\, Yorkshire Waterways Heritage Society is running a photography competition for young people under the age of 25 years to coincide with the Flotilla Of Vessels. \nAlthough the flotilla’s procession around the docks will take place on Saturday 18 July\, vessels will be arriving and congregating in Goole from Friday 17\, so there will be plenty of opportunity to capture images on both days. Entrants are encouraged to photograph and video what they see happening on the canal and in the docks the day before the Flotilla Of Vessels and on the actual day of the event. \nAll entries must be submitted to Yorkshire Waterways Heritage Society before midnight on 18 July. They will be published on the society’s website to provide a permanent visual record of the Bicentenary Flotilla of Vessels. \nSubstantial prizes will be awarded to the very best entries\, including a top prize of £250 worth of Amazon vouchers. \nTo enter and for more information\, click here.

SUMMARY:The Clash of the Vikings!
DESCRIPTION:Goole Vikings will take on Widnes Vikings at the Victoria Pleasure Grounds after the Betfred Championship calendar was reshaped following Featherstone Rovers’ withdrawal from the competition. \nThe two clubs agreed the dates for the newly scheduled fixtures earlier this year\, setting the stage for what has been dubbed ‘The Clash of The Vikings’. The fixtures will see two towns sharing one iconic identity going head-to-head in a unique Championship rivalry played out across two venues. \nIt seems particularly fitting that Goole Vikings’ home fixture will take place during the town’s 200th birthday month\, when a busy programme of community events\, activities and celebrations is planned and the home crowd is sure to be in a celebratory mood. \nBoth clubs are set to collaborate on a joint campaign around the fixtures\, celebrating their shared Viking heritage. \nWidnes is one of the sport’s oldest clubs and has a passionate fan base\, whilst Goole is rugby league’s newest side\, reigniting the sport that was first played in the town in the 1800s at the Victoria Pleasure Grounds\, which remains their home to this day. \nFurther ticket information and promotional details for The Clash of The Vikings will be released on the Goole Vikings RLFC website in due course.
