Leeds Heritage Pub and History Walk

Starting in the shadow of the Black Prince, in City Square, this three-hour tour is run by It's The Beer Talking, and led by author and beer writer Simon Jenkins and former Tetley PR officer Nicky Massen.

You’ll learn how our city is still shaped by its 13th century geography, how it was the scene of audacious industrial espionage, the key role it played in the birth of a global entertainment industry – and about an extraordinary human auction, where people were sold to the highest bidder, a little over a century ago.

The Nice Up Again - A Mini Festival of Joy and Togetherness

Hibiscus Rising provides the stunning venue for this celebration of musical cultures that people have brought to Leeds from across the world. There will be spoken word performances too.

The line-up includes Bassa Bassa, Music House Youth, SilverFinger Singh & Inder GoldFinger, Des Hurley & Gerry Brownridge (Leeds Irish Arts) and Ey Up Klezmer!, with DJ Festus and DJ Vicky providing us with an African soundtrack. This is music that crossses continents and builds bridges.
