SCARBOROUGH LIVE ADVENT CALENDAR
From 1 – 24 December windows across streets and neighbourhoods in Scarborough will be illuminated with festive creations. In true advent style fashion, a different street will be “opened” each evening at 4pm (some streets may vary).
There’s still time to get involved, find out how to take part in the Advent Calendar.

Between 5 – 14 December, The Aquarium of Light transforms the bandstand at the beautiful Sun Court at the Scarborough Spa into a community light installation with themes from the sea.
