Greetings weary traveller! whether you've come to our beautiful city from the furthest reaches of human civilisation, or if you've just over from Heworth, we hope this issue of what's On finds you well. Hey, lovely weather, ain't it? If you just answered 'It's okay, I suppose' that perhaps you're from one of those furthest reaches of human civilisation that enjoys good weather all year round, and if you just shouted 'YEaH YEaH YEaH! SUNNY warm!' then you're definitely from Heworth.

down down upon us and prolong the amount the time we can use sunlight to see all the many wonderful things taking place in York this month. Seriously, what a corker of a month!

Refreshments will be available at Levisham and Goathland along with classic vehicle displays over the weekend. 70’s dress is highly encouraged, so dig out those tank tops, flares and platform shoes and join us for an awesome weekend of live 70’s entertainment and diesel traction!
