Ever get that feeling? You're in a city like York, steeped in history and buzzing with life, but you end up doing the same old things. It’s easy to fall into a routine. But what if there was an easy way to find unique and exciting experiences, from spooky tours to incredible concerts? Fever gave a peek into some of the top-rated things to do, and it’s too good not to share. So, if you're looking for something a bit different, here are a few ideas to get you started.

Fancy a proper spooky night out?

Let's be honest, you can't be in York and not get a little bit spooked. It’s one of Britain's most haunted cities, so a ghost tour is practically a rite of passage. Fever has tickets for several top-rated ones that are more than just a person in a sheet jumping out from behind a bin. The "Shadows of York" is an award-winning historical ghost walk that really brings the city's grim past to life. It’s one of those experiences that’s both educational and genuinely creepy. It’s perfect for a night out with mates or even a slightly terrifying date night.

And there are more! For those who like their history with a gruesome twist, there’s also “Mad Alice’s The Bloody Tour of York,” which has picked up a 'Best Tour Award Europe 2024'. That’s a pretty big deal. Or, for a truly atmospheric evening, there's “The Deathly Dark Ghost Tour of York,” crowned 'Experience of the Year 2024'. It seems York is the place to be for a quality historical ghost walk. Booking tickets for these spooky adventures is straightforward, meaning less time faffing online and more time getting frightened.

Not into ghosts? how about some top tunes and a bit of a show?

Okay, so maybe wandering down dark alleys hearing about plagues and hangings isn't your cup of tea. Fair enough. How about something completely different? Picture this: a beautiful venue, lit entirely by the soft glow of candlelight, while musicians play tribute to one of the greatest bands of all time. That’s exactly what the Candlelight: Tribute to Queen concert offers. These Candlelight concerts are becoming massively popular because they're a totally new way to experience music. It’s a bit classy, very atmospheric, and a guaranteed good night.

Just a chilled one at the pictures

Sometimes, all you want is a big box of popcorn and the latest blockbuster. A trip to the cinema is a classic for a reason. But even that can be made simpler. Instead of queuing up or wrestling with different booking websites, you can grab your cinema tickets easily. The platform offers both Cineworld York tickets and Vue York Tickets, covering the city’s main spots.
