Many of the stalls take contactless payment as well as cash
Whether you're a white knuckle thrill seeker or a bumper fan of the dodgems there's a ride to suit everyone at Nottingham's Goose Fair. But the question on everyone's lips, especially with the current cost of living crisis, is what's the price?
When it comes to children's rides, they're mostly in the £2.50 to £3 price bracket, while the fun house is £3.50 a go. Mum-of-two Emma Wheat, of Kirkby-in-Ashfield, said the prices seemed reasonable as her daughter Scarlett Bettinson, four, headed to the 'Frozen' car on a roundabout. "It was £2.50, I paid more than that the Riverside Festival," she said.The adult rides vary from £3.
- a result of Covid or perhaps because of the cost. One game is charging £1 for three darts or £3 for five. A basketball game is £3 for three balls or six for a fiver. Showmen said they'd been hit by the cost of rising fuel prices - many of them travel from around the country to the Nottingham fair. Andrew Robinson said it was "scandalous" having to charge £4.50 at his hook-a-duck stand but said the cost of fuel, running the stall's generator, ground rent and the cost of prizes had forced him to pass the increase on to customers.
