Here’s a list of five things that might tickle your fancy:
Emma King and Friends Live!
Saturday 20 April
Kardomah 94

Hull’s singing sensation Emma King is performing in her home town on Saturday night.

Easter Treasure Hunt – GPS Hunts

It is Easter so it’s only fair that a treasure hunt makes the list, but how about a GPS one? In order to join this special treasure hunt you will need a smartphone which will allow you to put your skills to the test against time, terrain and trivia in this thrilling city-based challenge.
Challengers compete against each other in teams, with prizes for the highest scoring team and more prizes for the best team photo and team costumes – maybe you could hop along as an Easter Bunny? Get tickets and more information here.
Hull FC v Hull Rovers

Club Tropicana the Musical
15 April until 20 April
Hull New Theatre
