What to do in Leeds

Leeds is a mecca for art and culture, and some of the UK’s biggest events are staged here throughout the year.

Food plays a big role in the city’s distinctive culture, with the annual Leeds Food and Drink Festival a highlight of the local culinary scene. Whitelock’s is the oldest pub in the city and dates back to the ripe old age of 1715 – stop by here if you want a dose of history with your pint.

Pickles and Potter is your stop for a dizzying array of sandwich flavours and platters, while Hansa’s is a must for Gujarati vegetarian food. Adventurous eaters will find a visit to Anthony’s Restaurant in Call Lane well worth the trip, with plenty of daring ingredients on display.

Once you’ve eaten your share, head to The Carriageworks Theatre or the West Yorkshire Playhouse to catch local artists performing. The 02 Academy sees plenty of big-name musicians throughout the year, while Oporto, North Bar and Oracle are great for a night out on the town.

Trinity Leeds, the Victoria Quarter and the Leeds Corn Exchange are where you want to be for a shopping spree, while the beautiful Harewood House & Gardens (built in the 18th century) is perfect for those wanting to experience some history.

Last but not least, Leeds hosts one half of the famed Reading and Leeds music festivals that take place each year during the August bank holiday weekend. It’s the largest music festival in the north and always attracts huge headlining acts, with past names including Guns n’ Roses, Arcade Fire and Eminem.
