This should be the first place that you check out to see what is happening as there is a very active calendar of events.
The Yorkshire Dales was awarded International Dark Sky Reserve Status in 2020.
The Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority runs a Dark Skies Festival every year over 17 days during February and March.
Great spots for stargazing include four Dark Sky Discovery Sites. The nearest one is at Malham National Park Centre, 11 miles (25 min drive) away.
Soak up the festive atmosphere of the cobbled streets, with a warming mulled wine or hot chocolate, next to the festive glow of an open brazier as the pretty village of Grassington morphs back to Victorian times at Christmas.
An entertainment programme stretches over 9 days (inc. two weekends) in December, with bands, buskers and Victorian street entertainers and a torchlit nativity procession complimenting a traditional Christmas Market in the village square.
Together with the market and great food stalls, there will be a full range of entertainment in the Town Centre throughout the day, both in the main High Street Arena and at locations across the Town.
The Yuletide Festival is an ideal opportunity to bag yourself a pre-Christmas bargain. At the end of each day, everyone can get involved in the torchlight procession up the High Street to Holy Trinity Church where a traditional Christmas carol service will take place in the grounds!
