Grimsby Fishing Heritage Centre is pleased to announce the opening of a beautiful new exhibition at Grimsby Fishing Heritage Centre
Moments in Time
Coastal Photography by Steve Dixey
Moments in Time showcases the extraordinary talent of local photographer Steve Dixey. Steve has spent a lot of his free time as a beach wanderer, drawn to the sands and the sea, peering in pools, digging around for fishing bait and going fishing. The sea is in his blood; his father worked on Grimsby trawlers.
This exhibition features a collection of his stunning photographs of coastal scenes, capturing the natural and man-made heritage between Cleethorpes and The Wash.
Opens Saturday 13 December until 15 March 2026

Join us for a festive night with Grimsby’s own Lloyd Griffith!
Classically trained Bass-baritone (yes, really!) and all-around funny man Lloyd Griffith returns home for a magical evening of Christmas music at the beautiful, candlelit Grimsby Minster.
You might know Lloyd as a comedian, actor, or maybe from bumping into him at Blundell Park, but he’s also a seriously talented singer, and he’s bringing all of that (plus his trademark humour) back to where it all began.
Expect carols, Christmas classics, a few singalongs, maybe even a Grimsby-inspired tune or two, and definitely some laughs along the way.
Come join us and get into the festive spirit in one of Grimsby’s most stunning settings!
The Café will be open, serving a selection of seasonal refreshments, including festive mulled wine and mince pies!
