Pavilions of Harrogate has celebrated its 30th anniversary with staff and special guests at the Great Yorkshire Showground.
The award-winning venue marked three decades with a celebration ahead of Symphonic Ibiza, which took place at the Showground on Saturday.
Guests included Emmerdale actress Lucy Pargeter, The Yorkshire Vet's Peter Wright, TV presenter Christine Talbot and BBC Look North presenter Amy Garcia.
Journalists, content creators and representatives from Harrogate businesses who have supported Pavilions over the last 30 years were also invited.
The celebration coincided with the Showground team's annual staff barbecue, with catering provided by Ian King and Kings Catering.
Graham Thompson, Commercial Director, said:
“It was a real pleasure to bring together staff from across the business as well as clients and celebrities who have supported us over the years, to celebrate 30 years of Pavilions of Harrogate.
“Tying the celebration in as a warm-up to the new Symphonic Ibiza event seemed like a great opportunity and we are overwhelmed with the positive feedback from everyone who came and enjoyed it.”
Pavilions of Harrogate features 14 rooms capable of accommodating up to 450 delegates, with almost 2,000 square metres of event space.
Over the last 30 years, the venue has hosted more than 8,500 corporate events, 2,000 social events, 700 weddings and 500 exhibitions.
It has also welcomed 16 Royal visits during that time.
Together with sister venues the Great Yorkshire Events Centre, Fodder and Harrogate Caravan Park, Pavilions has helped generate more than £9.5million in profits over the last three decades.
The money has been invested back into the Yorkshire Agricultural Society (YAS), the registered charity which organises the Great Yorkshire Show and supports the agricultural community throughout the year.
This year's Great Yorkshire Show welcomed 150,000 visitors to the Showground.
YAS is now preparing for a number of events in the coming months, including Agritunity for secondary schools in October, its Women in Farming Autumn Gathering, Apple Day for primary schools and the Future Farmers of Yorkshire Autumn Debate.
The Yorkshire Farming Conference will also take place in January.
