On Friday 7th October as darkness draws across the city let us LIGHT up your night with Light Night.
Become a tourist and rediscover Leeds as we map out an evening of extraordinary activities. From city streets, shopping arcades, museums, libraries, theatres and prison cells there will be a magical mix of performances, exhibitions, installations and participation.
Look behind closed doors, peek into dark corners and step out onto rooftops. With over 40 venues and 75 events lighting up the city you will see actors, poets, musicians and artists sharing their work with you. Our events stretch across the city centre, from the University to the river we have events for all ages to delight and intrigue you.
We hope you enjoyed Lightnight Leeds 2011 – we value your comments and feedback, please help us improve the event for next year by completing and returning our feedback form.
