Yahoo News What's on in Hull and East Yorkshire from Saturday May 25 - Friday May 31
Most of us will be relaxing and enjoying a long weekend thanks to the late May Bank Holiday on Monday.
The weather is unsettled and there could be rain and sunshine in equal measures. Luckily, there are plenty of events and activities both indoors and outdoors happening in Hull and East Yorkshire over the weekend and into next week.
Most of the events are ticketed, but a certain gym is offering free sessions over the weekend. Meanwhile, kids are spoilt rotten with things to do over half term week and will love the opportunity to get pampered or go on adventures.
