Town Crier Contest Marks 20 Years of the East Riding of Yorkshire
Wed 30th March 2016
Flemingate marks the 20th birthday of the East Riding of Yorkshire with an occasion to shout about – Beverley’s fantastic Town Crier Event.
Held over Friday 1 and Saturday 2 April, the event involves 11 town criers from around Yorkshire who, as part of the celebrations, will be attempting to beat the world record for the loudest town cry on Friday 1 April - be sure to come along to witness what will (hopefully!) prove to be a record breaking event at Flemingate.
Afternoon activities also include Yorkshire Champion Club Sandwich at Deli.No.1, followed by the launch of Beverley Microbrewery Ale – cheers!
On Saturday 2 April, Flemingate will be attempting to set another record, for the most people gathered ringing bells. Ring-a-ding-ding!
Then there will be the third round of the Town Crier competition with a full length cry on the theme of Tour de Yorkshire, with the fourth and final round resulting in the announcement of the overall winner.
Enjoy a season of good, old-fashioned Yorkshire family fun this spring at Flemingate
