Whitby Gothic Weekend was created in 1994.
Whitby Gothic Weekend is a twice yearly event (April and October), and was founded in 1994 by Jo Hampshire. Initially, it was held once a year up until 1997, when it was then decided to hold it biannually. What started primarily as a weekend with a gothic theme, chosen probably for Whitby because of its Dracula connection, it has now snowballed into a huge a event. The whole town seems to be invaded by 'Goths', a friendly group of people, old and young alike, who like to dress in their gothic costumes and parade the streets or attend different events around Whitby. These include fairs, markets, even charity football matches! Many of the town's public houses have made the 'Goths' extremely welcome including The Elsinlore, The Little Angel and The Shambles. Whitby's nightclub, the Whitby Pavilion and the Metropole are also popular venues. There are a plethora of shops dedicated to the sale of both 'Gothic' and associated styles, selling clothing, jewellery, memorabilia, statues etc.
