Our venues
Leeds Grand Theatre
The most magnificent of titular characters, The Grand has been entertaining audiences since 1878 with the best of the day’s cultural entertainment.
Today, it plays host to the best of the West End and other touring productions, alongside opera and ballet from resident companies Opera North and Northern Ballet.
Established in 1865 as a room above a pub for the working class, The Varieties is Leeds’ hidden gem – and the Guinness World Record holder for the nation’s longest running music hall.
The home of the BBC’s Good Old Days, it is still regarded as one of the UK’s finest venues for live comedy, music, variety, and Leeds’ favourite Rock ‘n’ Roll Panto.
Opened in 1914, The Picture House is one of the country’s most distinctive and historic cinemas; harking back to a golden age when single screen picture palaces could be found at the heart of every community.
It is now the home of Independent film in Leeds, boasting a diverse programme, from foreign language films to family favourites.
