This weekend marks the first alternative festival of the year in Whitby after its two goth events were cancelled in the spring, and a fabulous array of costumes were on display.

The Whitby event is one of the largest steampunk gatherings in the UK, and is hosted by Whitby Pavilion. The programme includes a retail emporium and live music.
