Hey Scarborough! Here's what’s happening this week.
There's plenty to celebrate around town. Cowshed Burgers has reached its 10-year milestone, and to mark the occasion, they're giving away meals for two - all it takes is a like, a follow, and a tag.
Meanwhile, after 14 years at the helm, Annie is retiring from The Three Jolly Sailors. The pub will close on Mondays and Tuesdays until its final day in late October, marking the end of an era for locals and visitors alike.
And for something truly iconic, the legendary Flying Scotsman is back at the North Yorkshire Moors Railway for a limited run of autumn journeys.
That's just the start - from heritage tours to live music and plenty of seaside happenings, there's lots to discover. Check out the full event lineup below and make the most of Scarborough this week!
