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.

SUMMARY:Sync or Swim by Tamar & Jo
DESCRIPTION:Sync or Swim by Tamara & Jo is a vibrant\, intergenerational dance theatre piece co-created with professional and community dancers\, choreographed by Jo Ashbridge. \nInspired by the unlikely combination of synchronised swimming and 90s party\, the piece uses simple yet impressively crafted dance\, comedy\, colourful costume and a brilliant soundtrack of 90s bangers to create a fun and accessible experience for participants and audiences alike. \nIt explores themes of community\, togetherness and belonging through the sportsmanship and uniformity of synchronised swimming\, juxtaposed yet elevated through moments of joy\, individuality and partying. \nTamar & Jo have developed their highly successful engagement practice through their down-to-earth\, playful approach to community dance. \nFurther details about the timings\, venue and participants will follow nearer the time. This event forms part of a busy programme of celebratory events and activities planned at venues throughout the town to mark the main 200th anniversary weekend.

SUMMARY:Helios by Luke Jerram
DESCRIPTION:Photo credit: Becs Hughes. \nEast Riding of Yorkshire Council’s Arts team is delighted to be able to bring Helios\, a touring artwork by UK artist Luke Jerram\, to Goole. \nMeasuring seven metres in diameter\, the artwork features detailed imagery of the sun’s surface. At an approximate scale of 1:200 million\, each centimetre of the internally-lit spherical sculpture represents 2000 kilometres of the sun’s surface. It is very dangerous to look at the sun directly as it can damage our eyesight\, so Helios provides a safe opportunity for the public to get up close to\, and inspect its extraordinarily detailed surface\, including sunspots\, spicules and filaments. \nThe sculpture also features the source of the solar flares which caused the Northern lights to be visible from the UK in May 2024. The installation is a fusion of solar imagery\, animated lighting and a specially created surround sound composition by Duncan Speakman and Sarah Anderson. \nHelios\, in ancient Greek mythology\, is the god who personifies the sun. He drove a four-horse chariot across the sky each day\, giving the earth its hours and seasons. \nThe imagery for the artwork has been compiled using photographs of the sun provided by astrophotographer Dr Stuart Green\, taken between May 2018 and June 2024\, and NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) observations of the sun\, with guidance from solar scientist\, Professor Lucie Green of University College London (UCL). \nHelios was co-commissioned by National Trust\, Cork Midsummer Festival\, Liverpool Cathedral\, Old Royal Naval College and University College London. \nLuke Jerram’s multi-disciplinary practice involves the creation of sculptures\, installations and live arts projects. Living in the UK but working internationally since 1997\, Jerram has created a number of extraordinary art projects which have excited and inspired people around the globe. \nIn 2019 Luke Jerram was elected Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society. \nHelios follows on from Luke’s other astronomical artworks Museum of the Moon\, Gaia and Mars. \n\nFurther details about Hellos coming to Goole during 2026\, including the venue\, will be confirmed nearer the time.\n\n
