Brew+ at Goole Market Hall has announced its exciting line up of events for the coming months.

The venue, which is run by York-based Brew York under their ‘Brew+’ brand, was relaunched in early April this year after a £4m redevelopment project as part of the Goole Town Deal regeneration programme.

As well as live World Cup football, a rotating number of local bands such as The Numbers, Soul Revolver and Northern Velvet, Brew+ has also booked leading tribute acts paying homage to the Arctic Monkeys, Fleetwood Mac, The Killers and Oasis.

Additionally, the venue also has made plans for a regular quiz night, “painting in the pub”, business networking and the return of the very popular Northern Soul events.

Sean Hill, general manager at Brew+ Goole Market Hall, said: “The people of Goole have really welcomed Brew+ and have given plenty of suggestions and requests for what we could do – and we’ve listened.

“Our events calendar is really shaping up and we’re so pleased that so many organisations want to use this fantastic space. This is just an indication of things to come.”

A notable inclusion in the confirmed events is Helios, a touring art installation by renowned artist Luke Jerram, which will be at Goole Market Hall from 25 September to 5 October.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council is bringing Helios to Goole as part of the busy, yearlong programme of events and celebrations taking place to mark the town’s 200th birthday.

Measuring six metres in diameter, the artwork features detailed imagery of the sun’s surface. At an approximate scale of 1:230 million, each centimetre of the internallylit spherical sculpture represents 2300 kilometres of the sun’s surface.

Ryan Madin, programme coordinator for Goole 2026, said: “We’re delighted to be bringing Helios to Goole as part of the town’s bicentenary celebrations. Located in the heart of the town centre, Goole Market Hall is the ideal venue for this installation, which has drawn huge crowds as it has toured the UK.

“Working in partnership with Brew York, we’re planning a series of fun community events at Goole Market Hall during Helios’ visit to the town to encourage as many local people as possible to get up close to this highly acclaimed piece of art.”

The planned events include;
