Guests can collect their refreshments from their car outside the hotel.

The hotel’s front car park will feature a Yorkshire-themed pop-up with:

Dan Siddle, General Manager at The Crown Hotel Harrogate, said:

“We’re proud to be part of Harrogate’s heritage, and Yorkshire Day is the perfect excuse to celebrate what makes this town and this county so special.

“Whether you’re popping by for a scone or staying for a pint, there’s something for everyone.

“We’ll have the bunting up, the drinks brewing, and a proper Yorkshire welcome waiting.”

The event is open to guests, locals, and visitors.
