It’s fitting that as the summer solstice dawns this weekend, we also welcome the arrival of the 2026 Hull Times Summer Guide along with this week’s edition, both in your mailbox and at your favorite local store, and here at this link.

This publication is our most anticipated issue of the year. The Guide is free, mailed to all Hull households, and thousands of extra copies are printed and distributed all over town through the fall, for easy pick-up.

The Guide is full of detailed information about upcoming events, special offers from the business community, great stories about Hull from our talented reporters, and of course, it's all supported by our loyal advertisers.

We’re always grateful to our local businesses that support us by advertising each week and in specialty publications like the summer edition; please help us show our gratitude by patronizing these merchants and letting them know that you saw their ad in the Guide. The centerpiece of the publication is the comprehensive community calendar – the best place to find out what is going on in town. Please have a look at the pages of events and activities and mention the Times when you attend an event.

You can always check our website and the print edition of the paper throughout the summer for updates on scheduled events and new opportunities to enjoy the season. It’s never dull around here!

We hope you find the Summer Guide a useful tool for enjoying life in Hull. We know that residents and visitors will find something new and be reminded of all of the things that make this peninsula the best place to spend your summer!
