Free wedding fayre at the Victorian Scarborough Spa to showcase its rooms and outdoor spaces for civil partnerships and wedding celebrations.
Scarborough Spa is hosting its Wedding Fayre on Sunday 22 November, and if you're planning a wedding or civil partnership, it's a good chance to see the venue properly. The Spa sits on the South Bay on the Yorkshire Coast and has been a spot for civil partnerships and wedding celebrations since it was built in 1879. It's a Grade II listed Victorian building, so you've got the period architecture inside and views over the North Sea from the windows.
There's a fair bit to see across the site. For outdoor ceremonies, the grand Sun Court opens onto the ocean, while the Terrace and the newly refurbished Platinum Lounge work as drinks reception spaces. An indoor ceremony room is always guaranteed, and more than five characterful rooms are licensed for civil ceremonies, plus a private Wedding Suite. The venue sources as much produce as possible from across Yorkshire, which is something to keep in mind if you're thinking about the catering side of things.
It's picked up a few awards along the way, too. It was named 'Town and City Wedding Venue' at the 2024 North of England Wedding Awards and was Highly Commended as a Historic Building Venue at the Wedding Industry Awards 2025. It's also been named a Regional Finalist at the 2027 Wedding Industry Awards in three categories: Venue, Caterer and Events Team.
