Harrogate town centre will start looking rather more colourful this week, thanks to the return of the Floral Summer of Celebration.
The floral trail will return to Harrogate this Friday (July 18), with a series of exhibits celebrating the ‘jewel in Yorkshire’s crown’ set to be in place for a minimum of three weeks.
Bethany Allen, operations and projects executive at Harrogate BID (business improvement district), said:
We’ve got a variety of delightful displays set to appear across our town centre over the coming days…
The Floral Summer of Celebration always receives a great response from local businesses, residents and visitors – and we’re hoping for the same this time around.
Some of the locations where the floral installations can be found include The Yorkshire Hotel, The Cenotaph, Cross James Street, Beulah Street, Harrogate Theatre, Montpellier Hill, West Park Church, Library Gardens and outside the Nicholls Tyreman site on Albert Street.
The full launch of the Harrogate Floral Summer of Celebration will take place on July 18, when all of the displays have been created, put in place and ready for show.
The Harrogate BID team organises the celebration every year, in addition to its year-round work to maintain Harrogate’s floral reputation, which includes providing planters in doorways and over 200 barrier baskets.
