When is the next free pop up party in the Harrogate district?

North Yorkshire Council and Rascals Entertainment are hosting two more free pop up parties in the Harrogate district this summer.

When is the next free pop up party in the Harrogate district? Two more free pop up parties will be held in the Harrogate district during the summer holidays. Organised by North Yorkshire Council, the events have been a huge hit with families looking to entertain the kids during the summer holidays. Last week's event at Valley Gardens was hosted by Your Harrogate's Nick Hancock and featured characters and activities from Rascals Entertainment. And there are still two more pop-up parties to come. When and where? Free pop up parties will be held in popular parks in both Knaresborough and Ripon during the school summer holidays. On Wednesday 16th August, North Yorkshire Council and Rascals Entertainment will be teaming up again for another free party in the grounds of Knaresborough Castle. And on Thursday 24th August, a third pop up will be held at Ripon Spa Gardens. Both parties will run from 11am until 4pm. What do the parties involve? The free parties are always big with families as they include magic shows, mini discos and circus skills. There’s also set to be free face-painting, character meet and greets and balloon modelling. A spokesperson for North Yorkshire Council said:

“North Yorkshire Council and Rascals Entertainment are bringing back the fun-filled free pop up parties in our beautiful parks this summer. “They're perfect for younger children and their parents with a mix of entertainment and activities including; magic shows, circus tricks shows and character mini discos and more.”
