The locally owned and run Specsavers store on Swadford Street on supporting the event.
On 13th June, from 11am until late, the free family fun event will welcome residents with a procession along Westmoreland Street, featuring floats, dance groups, and various local organisations, as they travel to Aireville Park where the festivities continue.
There will be live music by local artists, a funfair, food stalls, a face paint stand where children can become their favourite characters - and, of course, the crowning of the Gala Queen.
Adam Daniel, Managing Director at Your Skipton which are sponsoring this year's event says:
"We’re delighted to welcome Specsavers Skipton as our lead sponsor again this year.
"The Skipton Gala is always one of the highlights of the community’s calendar, bringing everyone together for a fantastic day of entertainment and celebration.
"At Your Skipton, we’re proud to be bringing listeners all the latest from the gala once again, and having the support of local businesses allows us to continue shining a spotlight on the events and people that make Skipton such a special place to live and work".
Caroline Sullivan, store director at Specsavers Skipton, adds:
"On behalf of our team, we’re excited to be sponsoring Skipton Gala for the second year in a row.
"It’s such a privilege to support an event that is a key cornerstone of the community, one that everyone is always excited to see take place.
"It’s an amazing way to get into the spirit of summer we can’t wait to see what’s in store this time around and hope those attending have a fantastic time."
