The Hull Fair Project (2004-2005) was a lottery funded project to provide a documentation of Hull Fair. The Hull Fair project aimed to involve residents of Hull and the community of travelling showmen in building a community history web site exploring the recent history of Hull Fair from a personal perspective. It also aimed to conserve and enhance Hull's diverse culture and encourage the local community to identify, look after and celebrate its unique heritage.

The project collected, preserved, digitised and made widely available material relating to the heritage and history of Hull Fair through a format which was both user friendly and encouraged greater access of the fairground and Humberside communities to their heritage and history. The project worked with all communities enriched by Hull Fair, the local population, the showland community and Hull City Council. The project was completed in October 2005 with a resulting DVD and the creation of a dedicated website.
