Scarborough Fair has launched an open call for applications to take part in two major events, Scarborough Lights and Scarborough Streets, both returning later this year. Scarborough Streets will take place from October 10 to 11 and promises a free weekend of outdoor entertainment for all ages. Catherine Goble, festival manager, said: "After a highly successful summer season, we are planning our autumn and winter festivals, as we show off Scarborough as a year-round destination and a great place to live, with lots going on. "Scarborough Streets and Scarborough Lights are both commissioned festivals, and we welcome proposals from anyone and everyone to be a part of them." The winter programme includes Scarborough Fringe and Scarborough Art, both open-access events inviting performers and artists of all levels to take part.
