Scarborough's Hospitality Association has its Tourism and Business Expo at the Spa today.

It is the first time it has been held since 2019 because of the pandemic and more than 140 businesses will be showcasing their products and services to tourism and retail providers.

It is being run in partnership with Scarborough Borough Council and goes on from 10am till 4pm with free parking.

Shirley Smith, Chairman of the Scarborough Hospitality Association, said:

“We are delighted to be holding the event once again at Scarborough Spa and look forward to welcoming businesses from across Yorkshire and beyond; it is fantastic to see so many businesses coming together to showcase what fantastic produce we have to offer our visitors to the area.”

Janet Deacon, Head of Tourism and Culture at Scarborough Borough Council, said:

“This is a fantastic event which enables our independent producers to showcase their products and provides a great opportunity for business to business networking. I am really looking forward to meeting our local businesses and suppliers in person after two years of disruption."

When the event was held in 2019 over 1,000 hospitality businesses attended the event.

Exhibitors will come together from across the region and will include a range of food, drink and service providers and attractions such as Bid Foods, Booker, Millers, Hopwells, Whitby Gin, Wold Top Brewery and tourism leader Visit England.
