    Grab your flat cap and raise a glass of real ale to “God’s Own Country” as Bradford district celebrates Yorkshire Day.

    To help mark the day (1 August), the White Rose of Yorkshire will be flying on all flag poles across the district.

    For those around in the evening, the city will glow yellow, white and blue as lights in the mirror pool, city hall clock and Margaret MacMillan Towers shine in the traditional Yorkshire colours.

    There are events being held across the district, including a Yorkshire pudding tossing competition at Bolling Hall Museum.
