The popular Flamborough Fire Festival is now planned to take place in Summer 2024 instead of this coming New Year’s Eve.

Organisers say they are planning a summer event at the ‘New Festival Arena’ – but the location is being kept under wraps as the Echo went to press.
Events at the new location are set to include a Viking Torchlight Procession, Music and Drums, Ragnar’s Encampment and Mead Hall, Strongest Viking Challenge and Viking Costume Competition plus a fireworks spectacular.

People were previously encouraged to join in the fun and attend in Viking Costume with friends and family.
Jayne Emmerson, the event organiser, said: “The event, which was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to Covid, had previously attracted more than 20,000 visitors from all over the world.”

Last years torch-lit procession saw more than 100s of people take part.
