The Old Swan Hotel will be hosting the Theakston Old Peculier Crime Writing Festival with Harrogate International Festivals in July 2026. This event is hosted both inside the building and on the hotel grounds, therefore using our parking areas.

Saturday 18th our front car park to the left of the driveway will close, and all vehicles will need to be moved no later than 9pm on Saturday evening.
From Saturday 18th to & Tuesday 21st there will be limited parking at the front of the hotel. All vehicles will need to be moved no later than 8am on Wednesday morning.
From Wednesday 22nd there will be no parking available on the premises until Monday 27th.
From Monday 27th there will be limited parking at the front of the hotel until parking resumes as normal from Wednesday 29th.
Please be aware that access to the hotel will not be available until 3 PM on the Sunday 26th. Due to the private festival taking place at the property, we are unable to accept early arrivals under any circumstances. Therefore, guests will be unable to use the hotel facilities, including luggage storage and the Swan Bar & Lounge area, as the entire premises is booked for this function, which is due to end on this date. We kindly ask that guests plan travel accordingly.
Additionally, as parking will be extremely limited on the days following the event, if guests are travelling by car, we highly recommend exploring nearby public parking options in advance. Free on street parking is available, using disc zones on nearby roads for up to 3 hours, or guests use Duchy Road where there are no parking restrictions.
