Creative lighting has been installed in Harrogate town centre to mark events and celebrations.
The initiative has been funded by the Business Improvement District (BID).
Outdoor ceiling lighting has been placed along Beulah Street and the lights in the trees around the Cenotaph area have been improved.
The light installations are part of the organisation’s ongoing public realm and street dressing initiatives. The aim of the fittings is to not only highlight key milestones and celebrations.
The bulbs will be in place full-time and can be changed to different colours and patterns.
They will be changed to fit with the time of year of specific celebratory and remembrance periods, from Christmas to Halloween, to Easter and Remembrance Day.
BID lights on Harrogate's Beulah Street Harrogate
Matthew Chapman, Harrogate BID manager, said:
We’re delighted to announce that the new lighting has been officially installed and switched on in Harrogate.
They were turned on and trialled to highlight Halloween in Harrogate and are set to be changed to mark Remembrance Day this week.
We’re pleased to extend our eye-catching public realm around town. Street dressing is always an excellent way to decorate key locations in our town centre and this new fitting adds a new element to our offer
If you are a charity, community group or religious representative we’d love to hear from you so your colours have the opportunity shine bright.
Planning is well underway for next year and we’ve got so many exciting campaigns, events and services in the pipeline that we can’t wait to share with you.
