I am thinking of going up to Yorkshire for a bit of a "being a tourist" session this August. I have never been to Whitby festival because I always go to Broadstairs which finishes on the first Friday of Whitby. I thought I could maybe catch the end of Whitby but don't know where to stay. I have a caravan and a husband in tow. I also have a dicky knee which restricts how much walking I can do. Can someone out there tell me the best place to pitch up so I can see what the festival is all about? Can I stay on the festival site without a season ticket and just pay for camping? Is it possible to park in the town during festival week? If you can't stay on the festival site where is the nearest caravan site to the town? Where are the sessions (I sing and play)? Which Catters will be there and where can I find you all? Any info would be gratefully received? Mary
