A rare opportunity to view unique archive footage of Scarborough will be on offer during Coastival.

By complete contrast, film lovers with a taste for sci-fi will enjoy seeing two 1950s classics during the 10th anniversary festival.

An exciting programme of music, theatre, comedy, art and entertainment is on offer at Coastival from 22nd to 24th February.

Sunday 24th February offers the chance to see Scarborough on Film, a dip into historical footage from Yorkshire Film Archive at 1pm and 3.30pm in the Spa Music Room. Tickets are £5 via www.coastival.com

This is a rare chance to see footage from home movies, travelogues and regional TV productions reliving the story of the Yorkshire coast from the WW1 bombardment of Scarborough in 1914 onwards.

Movie-goers are in for a treat as Coastival serves up two fifties sci-fi classics, The Creature from the Black Lagoon (rated PG) and Invasion of the Body Snatchers (15) at 1pm and 3pm in the Spa Music Room on the Saturday (23rd February). Tickets are £3 per film or £5 for the double bill.

Tickets and details of the full Coastival programme are available at www.coastival.com
