To celebrate Easter Sunday, here we take a look back into the Harrogate Advertiser archive at photos of seasonal fun in the community over the years.

From traditional Easter bonnet competitions to egg hunts and other fundraising activities, it’s a time of year where there is fun for all ages.

These photos were all taken at Easter events in the Harrogate District over the past 20 years.
