Independent party supplies retailer Party Fever has said it is "working to get going again" after closing its doors in Harrogate.

The well-known Station Parade business, which opened in 2006 and stocks a wide variety of balloons, decorations and party accessories, has not been open in recent days.

A sign in the shop window said:

“Apologies. We have had to close the shop. We are working to get going again but unfortunately we are unable to serve you at the moment.”


The sign also said pre-booked orders will still be fulfilled.

The shop's website has a message saying "the store is currently closed".



Owner Sue Savill told the Stray Ferret she was "not ready" to issue a statement but she would provide an update in "due course".

It has been a difficult start to the year for businesses in the Station Parade area.

The Stray Ferret reported on the closure of the Fabulous 50s Diner on Bower Road, facing Station Parade. It ceased trading after enforcement notices were issued.

Since then we have also written about the closure of Go Herbs, which opened just nine months ago.
