A venue for all occasions

In 1869 a scheme for improvement of the gardens was commissioned, this included the building of The Sun Pavilion and the colonnade. The Sun Pavilion wasn’t completed until 1933. It was designed by well-respected borough surveyor, Leonard Clarke, also responsible for the design of many prominent Harrogate buildings. In 1998 it had a sensitive restoration and was officially re-opened by Queen Elizabeth II and has been a popular choice for weddings ever since.
