It’s Goose Fair time again!
No one knows where Goose Fair got its name. Legend has it that it comes from the hundreds of geese, which were at one time driven from Lincolnshire and Norfolk to be sold in Nottingham...
Every year, Forest Fields plays host to an amazing night of amusements, entertainment, fair-ground foods (including hot dogs and candy floss), prolific rides, and thousands of people. This event captures Nottingham’s imagination and drags in massive crowds over its short but well-lived time in Nottingham.
Although there’s not much goose anymore, with the exception of a few burger bars selling Goose burgers, it can be said that anyone who doesn’t go is a Goose…berry… Everyone else will be there! (Our apologies for the appalling pun!)
Here are some of our favourite pictures from Goose fair years past…
