The festival started in 2001 as a small gig which gained interest from local bands and DJ s. During the second year The Libertines played and things grew from there. In 2005 there were two more days added to the weekend, one of which was a movie night and the other an Orchestral night. In 2006 a Big Band played instead of the Orchestra. To fund the festival a grant is obtained from Scarborough city council and the rest is gained by corporate sponsorship.
