A Warm Welcome

Welcome to the August edition of the Whitby Advertiser, your go-to advertising magazine that has been supporting local businesses since 2006. A magazine which contains something for everyone - as well as adverts from trusted local businesses old and new promoting what they have to offer, there is a handy What’s On guide of community events and activities, a range of articles and features, competitions and puzzles and more!

As we move into the high season in Whitby, there's plenty to look forward to. One of the highlights of the summer season is the Whitby Regatta, which takes place from August 12th to 14th. This traditional event has been a fixture of the town's calendar for over 180 years and attracts visitors from all over the country. From the thrilling rowing races to the spectacular fireworks display, there's something for everyone to enjoy.

Another event that's sure to be popular is the Whitby Folk Week, which runs from August 19th to 25th. This celebration of traditional music, dance, and storytelling brings together performers and enthusiasts from all over the world. With concerts, workshops, and ceilidhs taking place throughout the week, it's the perfect opportunity to experience the rich cultural heritage of the area.

Of course, there's plenty to see and do in Whitby even outside of these major events. Whether you're exploring the historic abbey ruins after conquering the 199 steps, taking a stroll along beach or picturesque harbourside, exploring the quirky gift shops along the cobbled streets of the old town, or sampling the delicious seafood at one of the town's many restaurants, there's always something new to discover.

Want to be part of the Whitby Advertiser next month? Maybe you have a business you wish to advertise, or a local event to promote? If so, you need to act fast as space in our September edition is filling up fast – just call or email us today!

Okay. That’s me done! I hope you enjoy reading this issue of the Whitby Advertiser, and that it inspires you to support our local businesses as well as get out and explore all that this vibrant, welcoming community has to offer.
