Following the Love To Be Festival on the Stray, we want to know if people want to continue to see events like this held on the Stray.
After the festivals' return in 2024, residents nearby claimed the festival "disgracefully intruded on properties". However, six thousand revellers danced for 11 hours at this year's event in what was widely regarded as a highly successful use of Harrogate’s greatest asset.
We went to speak to people in Harrogate to ask for their opinion on the Stray, its current number of events and what events should be added or removed.
You can also read our feature-length article on whether more events should be held on Harrogate's Stray here.
