July in West Yorkshire is something else. From comedy stages at Kirkstall Abbey to the Liquorice Parade in Pontefract, there is something brilliant happening in every corner of the region this month.

And here's the thing: if you're heading to some of the great events happening in July, BetterPoints wants to reward you for getting there in healthy and green ways.

Walk, wheel, cycle or hop on public transport to the featured July events that we promote and you will earn bonus points automatically as well as entries to prize draws across the month. There's thousands of BetterPoints up for grabs!

The journey to any event or festival is always part of the fun, and now it pays too.

Keep an eye on events featured in the app this month, you might already be planning to go to some of them. 👀
