Flamborough has an exciting new Christmas light show over the next two weekends – with similar events also coming to Scarborough, Whitby, Withernsea and Spurn Point this December.
The light show will see laser beams from the old Flamborough Chalk Tower light up the area.
The shows will be taking place from 7 pm until 9.30pm in 20-minute intervals, on the 2nd-3rd and 9th-10th of December, with spectators from up to 25 miles expected to be able to see the lasers on a clear night.
To get the best views, the following locations have also been recommended as the best viewing spots:
· Flamborough Head car park
· Filey Country Car Park
· Scarborough Seafront for the Lighthouse and Castle
· Ravenscar
· Whitby Harbour
· Withernsea Valley Gardens
For those unable to make it on the evening, a video will be available post the event; everyone is invited to listen whilst watching live and enjoy the special soundtrack for a fully immersive experience by tuning in live via the ‘Love Yorkshire Coast’ YouTube channel here.
The four-night spectacle, funded by the Yorkshire Coast BID, will see multiple laser beam shows performed in a sequence at some of the most recognisable landmarks and lighthouses.
Tony Gill, Managing Director of Polestar Productions, said, “As a Yorkshire-based production company, we are very excited to create this unique event for the Yorkshire Coast BID, highlighting our iconic landmarks and celebrating Christmas. We believe it represents a first in creating a string of laser beacons stretching from Spurn to Whitby.”
Kerry Carruthers, Chief Executive of Yorkshire Coast BID, said: “We wanted to do an event that brought our incredible Yorkshire coast together and allowed everyone to celebrate the lead-up to Christmas.
“There are a number of incredible historical landmarks across the coast, and we wanted to showcase them by doing something a little different this year, which would support driving visitors to come and see our incredible coast in a new light.”
