Harrogate's cracking Christmas rolls on with ice rink and Ferris wheel fun
This story is sponsored by Events by Cynosure.
Harrogate's incredible Christmas offering is here to stay until the new year with plenty of festive fun to be had at the incredible Ferris wheel, ice rink, traditional carousel and more.
All of these showstopping attractions are new for Harrogate and will be here until January 3 - so now's the time to get your skates on!
The giant, illuminated Ferris wheel is in a great location, right in the centre of town.
At its peak of 32-metres, the Ferris wheel offers spectacular views both in the day but also at night with the town centre dressed up for the festive season.
The giant wheel is a great way to experience the town from above.
There's no need to book ahead for the Ferris wheel so just turn up when you're ready to experience Harrogate from above.
A true fairground feeling
The fairground feeling at Crescent Gardens is not to be missed either, especially at night when the festoon lighting switches on.
With a traditional carousel, ice rink, fairground rides for children and an aprés ski bar for adults - there's certainly something at Crescent Gardens for everyone.
The traditional carousel looks the part.
Sessions at the ice rink are 60 minutes, so there's plenty of time to find your feet and make the most of the experience.
It's perfect for families, dates, catching up with friends, Christmas parties with a twist or those wanting to learn with the skate school.
