(1)
Thank you ever so much to everyone who took part in or attended this weekend's Hulloween Steampunk Festival, culminating in the Grand Finale Parade through the city centre. Thanks also to Princes Quay - Hull for accommodating us at such short notice and going above and beyond to help us. 🫶
Look out for our steampunk stiltwalkers roaming around today. They are always happy to stop for photographs too.
The Raven Morris Dancers are drawing the crowds to Princes Quay this morning with their Steampunk shenanigans.
Teapot Racing is an unusual phenomenon. It's like remote-controlled cars, but with teapots. Obviously. Come and have a go, in Princes Quay today.
Did you miss out on all the splendidness yesterday? Never fear, we are back on the ground floor of Princes Quay from 10am-4pm today, with more market stalls, exhibits, musical performances, talks, morris dancing and teapot racing. Plus, the grand parade at 2.30pm. Everything is free to attend so get yourself here!
The Hulloween Steampunk Festival Immortal Ball is eerily magnificent in the splendid surroundings of the Guildhall.
Plenty going on in Princes Quay's ground floor today, including talks, exhibits, musical performances and teapot racing!
The Hulloween Steampunk Festival market is in full swing on the ground floor of Princes Quay, in the PQ event space. Over 40 traders here until 4pm today and from 10am-4pm tomorrow. Lots of different stalls, with something for everyone.
Fantastic turn out for today's Hulloween Parade through the city centre. Join us at Zebedee's Yard at 2pm tomorrow for the Grand Steampunk Parade. So good, we are doing it twice!
Despite the weather, or maybe because of it, this crowd is enjoying a Hulloween Steampunk Festival 'alternative' screening of silent movie Nosferatu at Trinity Market Hull.
Here is a handy map of the ground floor of Princes Quay, so you can get your bearings for what is happening where at this weekend's Hulloween Steampunk Festival. Everything should be easy to spot when you are there anyway, but we always like to help!
UPDATE! UPDATE! UPDATE!
All daytime events have now been moved to the ground floor of Princes Quay shopping centre. You can find the market in the event space, talks and tea duelling in one of the empty units, Steampunk exhibits and artefacts in the atrium, all musical and dance performances in the atrium, as well as the teapot racing. The parades will still be going ahead, as advertised, but will end at Princes Quay.
The evening performance of Nosferatu is still in Trinity Market, the ghost walks will still meet in Trinity Square, and the Immortal Ball is still in the magnificent surroundings of The Guildhall.
If you can't find what you are looking for, head to Princes Quay and you will be pointed in the right direction!
We won't let a little storm defeat us!
Are you attending the Hulloween Steampunk Festival markets on Saturday or Sunday? Note that due to the weather these have been moved indoors to the ground floor events space of Princes Quay shopping centre. Still just as many delights to tickle your fancy!
The full itinerary for the Hulloween Steampunk Festival next weekend is now on the website - www.hulloweensteampunk.co.uk - There is something for everyone!

TICKETS ON SALE NOW for Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror: Friday 20 October, Trinity Market, 6pm doors for 7pm-9pm performance.
Be prepared to be chilled, thrilled, and have your popcorn spilled.
We’re proud to bring you a little piece of Steampunk heaven in the shape and form of director F.W Mernau’s – Nosferatu A Symphony Of Horror.
This 1922 classical and innovative silent movie blood-fest set the standard for everything to come. This is the original and the best adaption of the Dracula legend.
Count-Orlok née Dracula stalks his Romanian lair, while contemplating the terror that he will spread to distant lands. But as usual it is not the blow from a stake to the heart, but a kiss from a beautiful woman which brings his final downfall.
Xander Armstrong, Steampunk revivalist, has industrialised the Steampunk musical, post-modernist, revivalist-era to bring you an amazing new take on the musical sound-score accompanying the vampiric legend over screen.
He will be accompanied by the ‘Queen of Gothic- – Maethelyiah – whose sombre, melancholic, and operatic tones add an extra flavour of dark ecstasy within the film, and also a guest male vocalist.
Xander delivers an hour and a half of sheer brilliance, never to be forgotten.
You will be whistling the tunes all their way home to your lead-lined, steel-made coffin. Rest in peace, Steampunk dudes.

The Immortal Ball Tickets ARE ON SALE NOW!!
Mrs Nellie Lovett and Mr Sweeney Todd invite the pleasure of your company at the second Immortal Ball to be held at the Guildhall in Hull on the evening of 21 October 2023.
The Immortal Ball is the centrepiece of the Hulloween Steampunk Festival and will include a sumptuous candlelit meal followed by an opportunity to listen and dance to The Retrobates – who will be returning by popular demand following their performances at last year's Grand Asylum Ball and the DecoDance at Asylum XIII.
As a result of her continuing business relationship with Mr Todd, Mrs Lovett is particularly keen for you to try her new range of pies, previously the finest pies in London, but soon to become the very finest in Kingston upon Hull.
Mr Todd in turn will be delighted to welcome Gentlemen to his new Barbershop in the Hepworth Arcade, right next to Mrs Lovett’s pie shop. Appointments will be available up to 11AM on the day of the ball; beyond this time, Mr Todd and Mrs Lovett will be busy in the kitchen.
Vegetarian and Vegan options will also be available (Mrs Lovett’s other neighbour is a greengrocer of repute).
Mortals and Immortals are equally welcome at the Immortal Ball. Expect Vampires, Steampunks, Witches, Wednesday Addams and, quite possibly, the Spirits of the very recently departed.
Doors 7PM for 7:30PM
Hearses at 11:30 PM
Tickets available at https://www.tickettailor.com/events/asylumxi/1002163 where you will also find Mrs Lovett's culinary plans for the evening.
