The launch of the much-loved shop’s Christmas window display on Parliament Street is always one of the highlights of Harrogate’s festive season and the unveiling on Saturday of the 2023 edition drew a large crowd of children and families.

The unveiling did not disappoint as queues of people were treated to carol singing and mince pies before the blinds were raised to reveal a Christmas cracker of colour.
