Whitby Steam Punk Festival 2024

A first ever visit to the February Whitby Steam Punk Festival and what a fantastic day it was. A dry and misty day saw a great turn out of people who had all come to enjoy the Steam Punk weekend and what a great bunch of people they were too. I met and talked to quite a few on my walk down to the Pavilion, checking out the stalls , then walking down to West Cliff, on to the harbour and finally up to Whitby Abbey, which was looking very atmospheric in all the mist. Even a £50 parking ticket on my car when I got back could not spoil this brilliant day out. If you have never been before, the next one will be in July - come down, dress up, join in the fun and meet some wonderful people!

Fun dress up event. Love the name Steam Punk Festival. Would love to have a top hat and tails. Looks like the cars and dogs dress up too! Money, ha that is funny. People come from far and wide for the Whitby. Superb steam punk atmosphere. Fun to see Nick and Jill too. Thanks for the good times👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes it was real nice to bump into them at the end of the day, especially as I was on the way home then. A real fun day out, one I really enjoyed. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan

[@FloridaFlipFlops]

Greetings from Naples, Florida. Now, that was fun!! We could not get over the costumes. Enjoyed!! Thanks for sharing with us, have a great weekend. 👍💯

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Such a fun day out and Whitby is only 50 miles away from us, so a please we visit several times a year, every year. Even a £50 car parking fine could not spoil this day for me. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@christinem3375]

It never ceases to amaze me the friendliness of everyone at these festivals. It's so nice to see so many smiling faces and people so pleased to stop & chat & tell you all about themselves. The outfits are amazing and no two alike so obviously each be individually created with lots of enhusiasm So many different stalls to choose from too for the outfit for future dates perhaps..How nice to bump into Nick &Jill 😍 You found a nice quiet spot for fish n chips .. an absolute essential but then I spied a cake shop 😀 Oh what a downer to end up with one of those horrid yellow stickers 😣 Fabulous shots of the sea but didn't look like a day for a swim!!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Not a day for a swim for sure, the sea was wild and same about the parking ticket to end the day but nothing was going to spoil my mood as the whole day was amazing. Not as big as the Goth Festivals but just as friendly and just as much fun too. I was on the way home when I spotted Nick and Jill so (ticket apart) made a brilliant end to the day. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@steamhead]

A fantastic video of the Whitby event. Thank you for featuring the Steamhead stall with all the inventions!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

No problem and what a fantastic day it was too, so many great people and the stalls I looked at were amazing. My first visit to the Steam Punk Weekend but I will be back for the next one, it was brilliant. Appreciate you stopping by and leaving a comment, very much appreciated, cheers Alan

[@Kimspics59]

Great Steampunk Festival Alan, love the costumes too. Good to see a bit of Whitby & the graveyard. Very atmospheric across the water & great to see the boats too. Thanks for sharing x💕😀

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it Kim and good to see you both again the other week, dam nice of you to bring your Southern sunshine with you too :O). Have a great weekend and thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@ItsArtByDonna]

I loved exploring this steampunk festival with you today Alan! It was happy seeing Nick n Jill too! Lots of fun and awesome people ❤ great vibes and video!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

That was the icing on the cake for me Donna, bumping into them just as I was going home and (parking ticket apart) what a fantastic day it was, I really enjoyed it. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan

[@DaveCollierCamping]

Really interesting, have a great week.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks, you too Dave, good of you to stop by buddy, cheers Alan

[@DaveCollierCamping]

My pleasure @@AlanMETALMAN

[@HikerT]

Wow - looks like an amazing festival and in such a gorgeous location too! The costumes were amazing!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks for visiting and only 50 miles from home for nice and local for me too. Not as big at the two Goth festivals they hold there every year but just as friendly and just as much fun. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan

[@21Swayzee]

Hey Alan, way to rock out the Whitby Steam Punk Festival! I enjoyed seeing all those amazing outfits...you are looking Sharp too! Way to soak in a cool community, and enjoy the fun!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks so much! It was such a good day, maybe not as big as the two Goth Festivals they have there every year but just as much fun for sure. Thanks so much for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@Packsalot]

Looks like a fun festival to attend. My wife would love this time of event, especially if it were Halloween time. Lots of interesting and unusual items on display. YT is definitely not for the money yet but I have heard of people doing pretty well. Looks like you had a great time visiting the sights and interviewing people. So fun. Have a wonderful day.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It you get the big views you make some money but it will never be for the small channels despite the time, effort and money we put into it. First ever visit to the Steam Punk Festival for me and I will be back for the summer one too. Not as big as the Goth Festivals they hold there but just as friendly and just as much fun too. Thanks very much for watching, appricate it, cheers Alan

[@WanderingwithWatto]

Great video Alan. We do need to come up North again to experience this Have a great weekend. 👍🏻🚶🏻‍♂️🚶‍♀️

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes you do, just as much fun as the Goth festival and just as friendly too, first visit for me but I will be back again in the summer for sure. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan

[@dthomas5281]

Fantastic place and really looks like a great time. I never knew what it was about till you said the description of theme. Really neat. Love the abbey and the cemetery,creepy but very cool. We could have spent hours poking around the head stones. Thanks for taking us along 👍👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Whitby is a real interesting place and the church and Abbey always blow my mind. Some of the head stones there go back hundreds of years but there are many without an inscription as they were unknowns washed up on the beach after a shipwreck, which there were a lot of at Whitby. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@Merritt7278]

Nice video Alan, do love watching these events, weird but wonderful.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it and I hope you got the answer to your question. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@JenniferLupine]

Whitby is a great place to have the Steam Punk Festival! Cool atmosphere at the coast, great to see the crashing waves and the protected harbor. The Church and graveyard are kind of spooky too! I’m not sure I would know how to dress for steam punk, I enjoyed seeing all the people you met and their style. 👌 Your top hat and jacket looked perfect! I liked the car and bikes tricked out too. Seems like you could shop and find plenty of clothes / accessories at the festival. Thanks for brining us along Alan! 🎩🌟 Cheers, Jen

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for stopping by and we both love Whitby, only 50 miles from home so we so throughout the year but this was my first visit to the Steam Punk Festival. Not as big as the Goth festivals held there but just as much fun and just as friendly too. Steampunk clothing is often inspired by the industrial revolution, combined with Victorian fashion top hats, silk dresses, waistcoats but with a punky, working class twist like goggles and work boots, cheers Alan

[@JenniferLupine]

Cool! Cheers! @@AlanMETALMAN

[@ervinslens]

Such a beautiful and unique costumes Alan, great music as well! 👏👏

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it and such a great day out, I was going to go back again today but the weather said heavy rain all day, so looks like I got the best day. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@purplejanew]

Look at you in your hat!!! Fabulous video!!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Haha, thank you and shame it stared to rain as soon as I got out of the car, so thought I better leave it off. Of course after the brief shower it never rained again all day lol. Real good day out, not as big as the Goth Festivals but just as friendly and just as much fun. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

We just missed you, 😢 Our first visit to Whitby enjoying the sites. Weather turned poor though 😊

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Aw that's a shame and a few days back it was forecasting full sun all day Sunday too. We only live 50 miles away from Whitby, so a place we visit a lot every year and really enjoyed the Steam Punk Festival, not as big as the two Goth Festivals buy just as friendly and just as much fun.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching Mike and I can confirm both the people and the fish n chips were all top drawer, I had a brilliant day, until I found a £50 parking fine on my car on the way home. Cheers Alan, cheers Alan

[@LivinginTheNewForest]

I've never heard of this before Alan, thanks for sharing. Some wonderful costumes. That VW Beetle was something! You're right about not doing it for the money! Great choice of music too. Best wishes, Rob

[@AlanMETALMAN]

First visit to the Steam Punk Festival for me but really enjoyed it. Not as big as the two Goth Festivals they also host there but just as much fun and just as friendly, I will be back for the next one for sure. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@BeforeIKicktheBucket1]

I had no idea there's a punk festival anywhere LOL....Fascinating to watch, great video work Alan!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes there are two weekend Steam Punk Festivals and two weekend Goth festivals held every year down at Whitby, which is great for us as we only live 50 miles away. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@BeforeIKicktheBucket1]

👍👍👍👍👍👍@@AlanMETALMAN

[@Wanna.Wander]

Well don't you look fancy💜🤩I just love festivals! Especially a horror theme. I'm wanting to go to one of these now, so I can dress fancy as well. Wow, the hats and jewelry caught my eye! 💜the streets are so adorable and the fish and chips sound yummy, with a nice stout brew Thank you for the tour Metalman💜

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It was so much fun and I always love going to Whitby anyhow but even more so when the festivals are on. The Steam Punk events are not as big as the two Goth Festivals they hold there but just as friendly and just as much fun too, I had a blast. Thanks very much for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@Sanniz]

Really great video. And I do love the creativity around the steampunk scene. Marvellous! Just ashame weather wasn't good enough. Great see you talk that much with all people. And nice to see the other two known faces too. Stay safe and cheers Alan 🦇⚙️🖤🖤🖤🖤⚙️🦇

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it and it was just a fun day. When I parked it was supposed to be full sunshine, I got out of the car and it stared to rain, so I went back in the car again for 20 minutes. It was not too bad after that but today, the second day of the festival, it was rain all day, which is such a shame for the people who have travelled a long way to be there. Not as big as the Goth Festivals but just as friendly. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@petercregg7525]

Great video alan...can't wait to take the family to the goth festival in April !

[@AlanMETALMAN]

You will love it Peter, real nice vibe there and I just hope the weather is fine as every time I have been there, one day is not too bad but the second day is always a complete wash out, which is a dam shame. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@DAoutdoors]

Fantastic Alan, there was some brilliant costumes on show. Thanks for sharing it with us. And what a place to have it, Whitby is a fantastic place, full of so much spooky history! All the best mate, Dave

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Only 50 miles away for us Dave so a place we visit multiple times every year and always enjoy it, first time I have had a parking ticket mind :o(. Still nothing was going to spoil the day for me, it was a brilliant day out. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@DAoutdoors]

@@AlanMETALMAN I worked in Whitby 20 years ago. The company I worked for did the new (at the time it was new) sewer tunnel. Haha

[@ItStartsWithAStep]

Looks like an interesting festival, amazing costumes there. Cool stalls as well. I loved seeing all the different people that came along and all the cool clothes. Definitely agree you do youtube for the love any earnings is a bonus x

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks for watching and such a fun day out (£50 parking ticket apart), not as big as the Goth festivals there but still great fun and such a friendly event too, I absolutely loved it, cheers Alan

Love your videos Alan . Keep doing what you’re doing 👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you like them, real good of you to comment and watch, always appreciated. The Steam Punk Festival was a great day, real nice people there too, I really enjoyed it. Cheers Alan

[@o.bsoutdoors3871]

Well we throughly enjoyed your day at the steam punk festival along with you Alan! The thing that struck us most was how friendly everyone was, happy to stand on the street and have a chat, a rare occurrence these days for sure! 😊👌. Ooh the stalls with all the weird and wonderful curiosities looked fab too! The costumes were incredible, oh my goodness, steam punk dogs! How adorable ❤🐶. Fish and chips looked yummy, had to be done! 😋. Yikes there you were just talking about the expense of making you tube videos, and now you can add a parking fine to that ☹️. But at least you had a fantastic day and met some lovely people, what it's all about. Thanks for the tour! Have a great week. Shell and Pete 😊👊👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Haha, yes, talk about ironic, it is so expensive bah blah and them come back to more expense with the parking ticket lol! It did not spoil my day mind, I loved it, had a brill time and met some fab people too and if you are in Whitby, you have to have fish n chips, its the law lol. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@wendingourway]

Absolutely amazing to see the amount of work put in to some of the attire!! Yikes on the ticket though.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes I know, I really had a good day, great fun and just as I got back to the car I saw that ticket - grrrr! Still nothing was going to soil my day, I had such a good time there. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@LynneLuxonJonesphotography]

Cheers Alan , think you've just convinced me that I need to visit on Goth weekend 👍👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

You should Lynne I went to both of them last year and they were great, brilliant atmosphere each time. This was the first time that I had been to the Steam Punk Festival and although it is not as big as the Goth festivals, it was still a fantastic day out with brilliant people. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan

[@lizadeavina23]

Experience video nice sharing good job

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thank you so much 🙂, really nice if you to stop by, cheers Alan

[@ReasontoLiveAdventures]

Excellent musical selection. I was continually reminded of the movie Clockwork Orange. That looked like a cool festival. It seems I will be riding the chemo train once again, with a new drug this time around. 🤙

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I remember going to the pictures top see that film as a kid, real controversial at the time. Sorry to hear about the chemo train ride upcoming, I hope it is only a short and productive one for you 🍀. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan

[@ReasontoLiveAdventures]

Maybe taking the new chemo drug will be the kick in the arse to make a few new videos. It’s been a while since I made a proper, edited video. My reason was to show other brain tumor survivors that there is life after treatment. The other reason I started a channel was to have a sort of log of my treatment and the physical/mental effects it has on an individual.

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Yeah, it doesn't seem anywhere near as busy as the Goth festival, but it is still really cool! Looks like you met a lot of really nice people there and also ran into some you met before! What a beautiful setting to have these awesome festivals at! Cool video Alan!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks Eric and yes, not as busy as the two Goth Festivals but still a real good day and real friendly people too. The weather was supposed to be full sun so that was a mile off but even a £50 ($63) parking fine on my car when I got back could not spoil a cracking day out. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan

Nice one alan got to love whitby like 👍 few of my mates went down to the goth gig they not into the goth life but they all enjoyed them selfs and had a good time great stuff

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Just like the Goth Festivals its a real fun weekend, I had intended to go back to day but the forecast was heavy rain most of the day, so I binned it. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@Shastavalleyoutdoorsman]

I've always wondered exactly what steam punk is. I knew it had something to do with brass and copper pipe and gears 😂. This had a definite English flavor to it. Very interesting thanks for sharing Allen.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Appreciate you stopping by and you called it with the English flavour, something I rally agree on. It really was a fun day and everyone there was so friendly, not as big as the two Goth festivals they hold there every year but just as much fun, cheers Alan

[@yasminshikingmission]

Hey Alan 😊 looks a great event, everyone has dressed up so well. You needed to take your top hat with you so you were walking about! Jacket looks cool too.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Just as I got out of the car we had a shower, so I left my top hat in the car, of course it never rained again all day but I will be wearing it for the Goth festival in April. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

Cracking job Alan, particularly around the stalls in the Pavillion! Love that car, he’d come all the way from Liverpool in that!

Mmm, mister chips is smashing. The 199 steps is always a must do! Please don’t ask staff where Draculas grave is! Fantastic, not seen that before! 14:15 pair of characters those two!

Hi Alan. Nice Steam Punk festival. I love how relaxed people are, and some really put effort into their outfits. Sretana asks me what Steam Punk is, but it's a bit difficult for me to explain it to her because she is not really in that world like punk, goth and heavy metal.

Great vid - shame abt the Parking Ticket. Come on why - we all want to know!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

There were at lease a hundred cars all parked in a line all the way down the prom, still unsure why they picked on me. The only thing I can think of is, if you are opposite a guest house, those spaces have to be left for their guests and they given a disk to place in their car while you are stopping there. Either was, I was determined not to let it spoil a great day out. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

Hi Alan, I love your jacket/coat!! well weaved and unique design. OMGoodness, It is fun to explore vendors who sell Punk fashions and accessories. 3:42I bet they are a little pricy. I don't believe we can find them in the US, perhaps Halloween store hehe I would love to have Mrs. Metalman join you to appear to next Punk Festival. She would be gorgeous in those Punk Ladies' dresses. She is not only beautiful but also tall and slender with long legs and arms. I can definitely picture you and her in Punk Festival, Alan. heheh hhahah I thought monkeys are real too first hahahah 6:17 Anything for Mrs. Metalman? 6:56 The clouds are thick...a little gloomy. Spring is there yet? 11:11 Punk Festival is not only historical event here, but I like it energizes local small businesses Well Done Alan. Thank YOU so much for strolling Whitby Punk Festival.

It was such a good day and the people so friendly too. The market stalls were real interesting to look around and I always have to go to the Abbey when ever I am in Whitby, it is always so atmospheric. The weather was nt the best but at least it stayed dry, the following day it the festival was a complete wash out, so I sure picked the right day to go. Thanks very much for stopping by, cheers Alan

A nice day out, but different from a hike in the Lakes. Mrs Metalman didn’t fancy it? Do these events include entertainment? I’m curious. Thanks. X

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes they do but on an evening and I did not fancy the drive back over the Moors in the dark but a real fun weekend festival, the people were amazing. Mrs Metalman was feeling a bit off colour or she would have come as she loves Whitby. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

Ooh Alan, you looked very dapper! ❤ I always enjoy videos of the Steam Punk Festival. Btw, you made a typo in the title...you've called it "Stream" Punk. Might be a good idea to change that, lol! The costumes were fabulous. People are so creative and imaginative. It was lovely to see inside some of the shops. You are so right in saying the money you make from YT is peanuts and the costs of making videos far outweigh what you get back financially. But, it is more than just the money for those of us who carry on 😊Oh my, those fish and chips looked so delicious. Wish we could get fish and chips like that over here. How great that you bumped into Nick and Jill! Thanks for a brilliant video 😎👍

Oh thank you so much for that my dyslexia strikes ago, I never noticed, neither did Mrs Metalman who always proof reads everything I write lol. I always laugh when people thing you are going to make loads of money on KZbin and yes some people do but the majority never even cover their costs, so for me my channel was never about making money. The Steam Punk Festivals are not as big as the Goth festivals at Whitby but just as friendly and just as much fun and those fish n chips never fail to hit the sport. Thanks so much for watching and spotting the typo, cheers Alan
