New Website for Events in York
The York Tourism Bureau has launched a new website featuring events in the historic city. Whats On York, which debuted this month, lets both visitors and residents of York search for current and upcoming events in York and the surrounding areas.

Whats On York lists events by date, by venue, and by type of event, including exhibitions, festivals, heritage, music, and muh more. Website users may also sign up to receive regular bulletins featuring their preferred types of events.

Whats on York is a partnership between First Stop York tourism partnership and York Multimedia, one of the city’s leading web developers.
