The line-up has been revealed for the first Harrogate Music Weekender, which begins in seven days.
Thirty events will take place from Friday, October 13 to Sunday, October 15 and feature everything from rock and acoustic to Ibiza anthems and throwback hits.
Fifteen venues including Manahatta, Husk Beer Emporium, Artizan Café, Piccolino, The Den and Foundry Project will take part in the music extravaganza.
Harrogate Business Improvement District, which is funded by local businesses to increase the number of town centre visitors, has organised the event.
It hopes the event, along with next week’s Visit Harrogate Restaurant Week and the ongoing Harrogate Comedy Festival will provide a town centre boost in the pre-Christmas lull.
DJ Mark Green will kick off the weekend at the Yorkshire Hotel at 6pm on the Friday night with an Ibiza-themed closing party.
As well as the events across the weekend, Harrogate BID will have a walking DJ booth and street performers in the town.
Matthew Chapman, Harrogate BID manager said:
“We are looking forward to making this a successful annual offer in the Harrogate events calendar and hopefully bring people from far and wide into the town to experience the vibrant live music offer that we have.”
Here is the line-up.
