    Yorkshire Day celebrations are set to be in full swing across the Bradford district tomorrow, 1 August.

    The summer festival in Ilkley kicks off at 11.30am, with the town crier leading the event which will see a jazz band marching through the streets.

    East Riddleston Hall in Keighley will be holding an event exploring Lammas, a traditional festival that celebrates the annual wheat harvest.

    Bradford Council will be marking Yorkshire Day by replacing their logo with the old Bradford coat of arms, which dates back to 1847.

    This year’s official Yorkshire Day celebrations will be taking place in the south of the county, at Sheffield.
