    The event, which was cancelled last year, will take place in its usual place alongside Oatlands Drive on November 6.

    The 50th Stray bonfire will take place on November 6 after Harrogate Borough Council gave organisers the green light.

    The Stray Ferret revealed last month the event was set to go ahead. Now the news has been confirmed.

    Harrogate District Round Table was forced to cancel last year's display due to coronavirus restrictions but it is now preparing for the event to return at its usual spot alongside Oatlands Drive.

    Round Table volunteers hope to raise £8,000 to pay for fireworks and additional costs, such as first aid and traffic management, and have set up a gofundme page.

    Any extra money generated though the fundraiser, and on the night, will go to Friends of Harrogate Hospital.

    A spokesperson for Harrogate District Round Table said:

    "This will be the 50th year Harrogate Round Table has run the Stray charity bonfire and fireworks event and, with your help, we want to run an amazing event the whole community can enjoy."
