Events in Leeds From 1st June – 7th June 2026

You can find a mix of live music and creative events in Leeds this week. The week kicks off with performances across genres at venues like The Wardrobe and Lending Room. There are dedicated nights for indie, electronic, and hip hop acts, with shows from both rising artists and established names.

The HIFI Club hosts a comedy night with Matt Bragg, while Distrikt features a live DJ set by Vitess. Expect a varied schedule, from club nights to genre-blending performances and themed events. You can find these events at venues across the city, with options just outside the city, including a day trip to Saltaire for the vintage fair at Victoria Hall. Consider visiting the area around the Royal Armouries and the riverside bars, or explore markets like Kirkgate Market for local crafts and food. Leeds Railway Station and the bus network offer access to these locations, but parking is limited, and 22 car parks will close from 27 March 2026, so using public transport or cycling is recommended. Plan your week around the listings, which include live shows and events along the River Aire and at Millennium Square.
