A decision is still to be made on whether to stage this year's Mayor's Carol Concert at Harrogate's Royal Hall.

The concert, which is traditionally held on Christmas Eve, is a popular part of the Harrogate district's festive programme. Tickets are free but usually sell out well in advance.

The hall is open for business but with Christmas just five weeks away, Harrogate Borough Council still hasn't given the carol concert the green light.

A council spokeswoman said:

"The council is currently working with public health to determine if and how the event can take place safely given the rising covid rates amongst school-age children who form the choir and orchestra for this event."


The spokeswoman added the council hoped to be in a position to provide further details "in the near future".

Last year's concert was held remotely due to covid.
