Work began today to put up the ice rink which will be one of the main features of Harrogate's Christmas attractions this year.
Crews from Events by Cynosure were on Crescent Gardens this morning setting up the rink, which will open on Friday, December 2 and has been organised by Harrogate BID and Harrogate Borough Council's Destination Harrogate marketing team.
The rink will run until Tuesday, January 3, opening every day except Christmas Day, and will be accompanied by an après-ski bar.
It is part of a scheme of attractions around the town which will also see a carousel, a ferris wheel and the Candy Cane Express road train return after a successful first appearance last year. They will all run until January 8.
Harrogate Christmas Fayre, running from Friday, December 2 to Sunday, December 11, will have 50 stalls put up around the town centre featuring a range of traders, including local charities. Installation will begin on Monday, November 28 and the fayre will be open from 10am to 7pm Monday to Saturday and 10.30am to 4.30pm on Sundays.
Meanwhile, the Christmas lights have been switched on across the town centre, with just over five weeks to go until Christmas Day.
