Queen's Platinum Jubilee: Celebrations get underway across Harrogate
The sun is shining and festivities across the Harrogate district are well under way as we honour Her Majesty The Queen, as she becomes the first British Monarch to celebrate 70 years of service.
Four days of free family fun has begun this morning which thanks to Destination Harrogate and Harrogate BID, has seen the West Park Stray transformed into a family-friendly fun-fest to celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
Taking place over the four days of the Jubilee Bank Holiday weekend, there will be live music, family films and live broadcast's of the main events taking place in London.
It's not just the West Park Stray that has been transformed, the Valley Gardens will also host a weekend full of fun with a mix of live open-air music, family entertainment and activities, demonstrations and fairground rides.
