Goose Fair

Enjoy all the fun of the fair at the Forest Recreation Ground this autumn, as Goose Fair is back from Friday 25 September to Sunday 4 October. Goosey the Goose Fair goose has taken up its perch on the Mansfield Road roundabout once again, announcing the return of one of the largest travelling funfairs in Europe. With more than 400 rides and attractions and thrills aplenty for all ages, Goose Fair has been staged annually in Nottingham since at least 1284. Attending for the very first time is Elevate 85, standing at 85m in height and the tallest ride ever to attend Goose Fair, which will offer incredible panoramic views of the fair and the city beyond. The 80m high Skyfall, the world’s tallest portable drop tower, will also be making a welcome return after its popular debut in 2025. Psycho is another new addition this year, a looping thrill ride that spins and swings its riders through the air.
