Enjoy a brand new drone display at Scarborough Castle, commissioned especially for Scarborough Lights, taking place over five nights between 19-23 November.
Take a journey round Scarborough with Thomasin Farrer and some local schoolchildren as we approach the 400th anniversary of the town. It is also a unique chance to see the special Scarborough Castle illuminations up close.
The display is produced by Flight Shows, one of the UK's leading drone show companies. The accompanying text is written by Stephen Joseph Theatre's Nick Lane, soundscape, sound design and recording by Ernie Acquah, with the voices of Georgie Samuels and members of The Stephen Joseph Theatre's Young Company.
There will be fire, light and music performances before the show, so you are in for a real treat.
There will also be food and drink stalls available.
