What else is planned?

Part of the park will be transformed into a beach, complete with deckchairs and inflatables.

What the organisers, International Funfairs, say: “It’s a real family friendly event in a lovely location inside the park.

“There will be rides for younger children too, as well as the bigger rides for older children and adults, along with the beach area to relax.

“Entry is by wristband and once inside the rides are unlimited so people can go on them as many times in three or four hours.

“The fair opens to the wider public at 1pm on Saturday, but on Friday we’ve invited 150 children from the special schools in and around Huddersfield to come and join us for free.”

Where in the park is the fair?

The fair is taking over the playing fields towards the top of the Greenhead Park, just off Trinity Street.

The wider park remains open to the public for free. The fair is wristband entry only.
