This licence renewal is a sign that Kings Club is confident in its return after a few difficult months.

Kings Club in Harrogate.

Harrogate Borough Council is set to decide on the renewal of a sexual entertainment licence for the town's only strip club.

Kings Club, Oxford Street, needs permission to continue its topless pole dancing, topless stage strip tease and full nudity lap dancing.

It is separate to the strip club's alcohol licence, which will not be affected when the council meets next week to decide on the application.

The government closed all clubs in March and has not yet given them the green light to reopen. This licence renewal is a sign that Kings Club is confident in its return after a few difficult months.

Harrogate council's licensing sub-committee will meet on September 17 to grant or refuse the licence renewal.

When the Kings Club closed it said that it will reopen as soon as possible to "restart the party". The club added in its announcement:

"We are grateful to the government for the financial support they have so far offered which will soften the financial blow for our staff and management. We look forward to the party of the decade when we return."
