A NORTH Yorkshire town is planning a fun-packed weekend of events to coincide with this year’s Tour de Yorkshire.

Scarborough will be a host town once again for the cycling extravaganza.

To welcome the Tour de Yorkshire cyclists home after their 107-mile ride on April 28, events will be taking place right across the seaside town as part of its Grand Tour beach party.

A major literary festival, ‘Books by the Beach, is taking place from April 26 to May 1 at various venues.

The Festival of Speed Bike and Car Hill Climb will be held on April 29 and 30 at Oliver’s Mount.

On April 30, a Vintage Fair will take place from 10am to 5pm at Scarborough Spa.
