Visitors to The Harrogate Fire and Light Experience enjoyed a trail of dazzling displays in the Valley Gardens last weekend.
Harrogate International Festivals teamed up with Culture Creative to light up the gardens with stunning installations of illuminations and incredible fire sculptures. Those who visited the gardens were also treated to fire lanterns, art installations and fire dancers, creating an experience that was enjoyed by people of all ages.
Here we take a look back on some other events that have taken place in Valley Gardens previously. Do you recognise anyone?
