WELL… THIS WOULD BE PRETTY COOL
Nominations are now open for the Wakefield BID Awards 2026 and we’d absolutely love to see The Silly Goose get a few names in the hat.
It’s been a pretty crazy start for our new venue.
Not many businesses can say they got evicted before they’d even opened their doors. 😂
But we opened anyway.
Since then we’ve thrown a ridiculous number of axes, fired plenty of darts, met thousands of you and somehow built this slightly bonkers place into something we’re incredibly proud of.
So we're going to be cheeky and ask…
If you’ve visited us, had a great time and think The Silly Goose deserves a nomination, chuck us a vote. ❤️
There are different award categories you can nominate us for, so have a look and pop us into whichever category (or categories) you think we deserve.

No begging. No bribery.
Just a small independent Wakefield business having a crack at it.
And while you're there, nominate some of your other favourite Wakefield businesses too. There are some absolute belters in this city that deserve a bit of recognition.
Although if chocolate would sway your decision, we can talk.
