Live At Leeds

Friday 25th May Saturday 26th May

Three months into the celebrations of its 800th year and Leeds is about to cement its place right in the centre of the UK music map with the brand-new ground-breaking Live At Leeds festival. In recognition of the year-long celebration of the city's 800th Birthday and of its position at the cutting edge of new music Leeds City Council has joined forces with promoters Futuresound to host the three-day spectacular over the late May Bank Holiday weekend.

With one main day packed with performances from around 30 bands, there will also be a day of music industry education sessions for young people and aspiring bands, plus a music-themed film event day.


Music fans are expected to descend on Leeds key venues on May 26th as the city puts its finger firmly on the musical pulse. Around 30 bands will be appearing, in venues ranging from the large-capacity Town Hall to more intimate settings such as the Brudenell Social Club. There will also be some gigs on the Friday and Sunday.
