Organisers of the Beverley Festival of Christmas have hailed this year’s event as the most successful yet, with an estimated 60,000 people attending the festivities on Sunday, 11 December.
The festival benefitted enormously from an increased footprint, which took in North Bar and Flemingate.
Beverley’s Potting Shed is glamping up its Christmas celebrations by installing a yurt in its garden. The gastro pub on Flemingate wants customers to carry on enjoying the outdoors right through the festive season and into the New Year.
But being under this canvas will be more chilled out than chilly, thanks to a log burner to keep everyone warm and toasty when the temperatures drop outside.
The first events and artistic collaborators for Where Are We Now?, a new festival presented by avant-garde art collective and provocateurs Neu! Reekie! as part of Hull UK City of Culture 2017, have been announced.
The festival will take place from 2 until 4 June 2017 with the first events on sale now at www.hull2017.co.uk.
A charity whose aim is to improve the quality of life for people in hospitals, care homes and day centres through the use of professional live music has requested a little less conversation and lots more rock and roll in their search for Elvis Presley performers.
Music In Hospitals (North East) whose strap line is ‘creating joy through live music’ has listened to patients and service users’ requests and is now looking at rock and roll to soothe the soul.
The annual Beverley Festival of Christmas returns for 2016 on Sunday, 11 December, from 10am-4pm, and will take place at venues and locations across the town.
The witching hour of Halloween is creeping up fast but if you haven’t got plans, don’t be scared … The Potting Shed in Beverley has a ghoulish line-up of events to get you nicely chilled.
Keith Reed, who has been raising money for the charity for 25 years, teamed up with family, friends and colleagues from the Defence School of Transport, Leconfield, for the challenge.
Following last year’s sell-out success of A Christmas Carol, East Riding Theatre (ERT) is very proud to announce our brand new Christmas production – a contemporary re-working of Oliver Twist.
