In partnership with

Hey Beverley! Here's What's Happening This Week!
Things are getting lively across Beverley, and we've got your front-row seat to it all! The Tiger Inn's food pics are giving us serious cravings (don't scroll hungry), while Quickline's new gigabit broadband could be a game-changer for rural homes around East Yorkshire.

Looking for things to do? This week's lineup is packed - from salsa dancing and whisky tasting to toddler trampoline sessions, rooftop tours at the Minster, and back-to-back live music. There's also a giant chess fest at Flemingate, PRIDE events at local libraries, and camping news for Beverley Folk Festival fans. On top of that, Ladies Day tickets are nearly sold out, so don't delay if you're planning to go glam.

Need a good reason to get outdoors? Sewerby Hall's Summer of Fun is kicking off with penguins, pirates, and circus workshops - perfect for families. And for those with something to say, the High Wolds Poetry Festival wants your words.

From art clubs to karaoke nights, we've got your week sorted. Scroll down to find all the details and start planning your next adventure!
