Three Wetherspoons pubs in the Harrogate district are set to host a real ale festival in October.

It will be held from Wednesday, October 11, until Sunday, October 22.

Will Thorton, manager at the Winter Gardens in Harrogate, said:

“The festival is a great celebration of real ale.
"It will allow us to showcase a selection of superb beers over a 12-day period, at great value for money prices.
"It will also give our customers the opportunity to enjoy a number of beers which have not previously been served in the pub, including those from overseas.”
