Photographer Richard Ponter attended the event to capture the happy atmosphere and smiling faces of those who attended. The unexpected heat wave was fantastic for the Scarborough event, with lots of people sipping pints outside and enjoying the summer sunshine. It was a relaxed evening full of laughter, conversation, and most importantly great beer.
The Beer Festival is part of a series of events to mark Scalby Fair Week, which runs from June 12 – 21.
The most anticipated event is the Scalby Fair Day, which is circus themed, taking place on June 20.
