A nationally-rated annual arts festival held in one of Harrogate’s prettiest and most historic villages has revealed it is to bring one of the UK’s most exciting opera companies, Wild Arts, to its summer line-up.

Wild Arts has been making a big impact in recent years with five-star reviews for its fresh and innovative new opera productions from Opera Now and The Guardian.

For this June’s Northern Aldborough Festival, the company will be performing their acclaimed reimagining of Donizetti’s The Elixir of Love set in a dreamy 1950's seaside resort.
