Ranging from Santa arriving in Scarborough, hilarious comedians, Christmas festivals and light displays, the Yorkshire coast is the place to be this November!
Now that Halloween and Bonfire Night have taken place, events in Scarborough, Whitby and Bridlington are getting festive while people prepare for the run up to Christmas. Make sure you don’t miss out by checking out the list below!

13. What's on in November
Drone Display at Scarborough Castle will take place on November 19-23. Enjoy a brand new drone display at Scarborough Castle, commissioned especially for Scarborough Lights. 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. Photo: Visit North Yorkshire

14. What's on in November
Omid Djalili: Namaste will take place at Scarborough Spa on November 21. The Persian Comedy Powerhouse performs his critically acclaimed new show NAMASTE where Omid peacefully bows to his inner anger and unleashes a torrent of comedic vitriol upon the current state of this dangerously messed up planet. No government gets a green card. No tyrant avoids a take down. No audience member leaves the theatre with an ounce of laughter left in them... Photo: Visit North Yorkshire

15. What's on in November
The Last Dinner Party are performing at Bridlington Spa on November 23. With two BRIT Awards to their name (including Breakthrough Artist earlier this year), and having sold out virtually every show they played right across the globe (including three sold-out hometown shows at London's Eventim Apollo), The Last Dinner Party's arrival and subsequent worldwide success was one of the most thrilling introductions to a new British band in decades.

16. What's on in November
Scarborough Sparkle is coming to the Open Air Theatre from November 28-30. There’ll be the annual lantern parade created by local community groups as well as stalls offering crafts, gifts, hot food and drinks. If that isn’t enough there’ll be a tipi bar, where you can listen to music and toast marshmallows and a stage hosted by This is the Coast local radio station, featuring local choirs and competition giveaways. There’ll also be fun fair rides, music, a snow machine, Christmas tree, Santa sleigh and meet our mischievous green Christmas guest and special snow sisters. The event is sponsored by O'Briens funfairs, catering and stage hire. Photo: Visit North Yorkshire
