Malton Sculpture Trail 2024 - Autumn Edition
The Autumn edition of the Malton Sculpture Trail will showcase a variety of pieces of artwork from 2D to 3D pieces across the town. Many of these will be created by Yorkshire artists with a theme of “local lore” and community heritage.
Trail maps will be available to download from Malton Sculpture Trail website. Alternatively, you can collect your own map from the various points during the Festival weekend.
There will be designated festival car parks. Parking is £7.50 per car (cashless, card payment only) and includes a free Park & Ride shuttle bus service to and from the festival. The festival itself is held in Malton’s town centre, postcode YO17 7LX.
Don’t forget that Malton is also easily accessible by train or bus with an hourly service on the Liverpool to Scarborough line and the award winning Yorkshire Coastliner service – the station is just a 10 minute walk from the Festival entrance.
