Important update, due to the coronavirus pandemic Live At Leeds has been postponed until 28th September, organisers statement below: 

Due to the ongoing situation regarding Covid-19, Live at Leeds Festival will reschedule the 2020 edition to Saturday 28th November.

We made the difficult decision to reschedule the event, originally planned for May 2nd, following government guidelines and advice regarding the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. The health and safety of our audience, artists, staff and crew is our priority, and given these extraordinary circumstances, it has become clear to us that the safe and sensible decision is to reschedule the 2020 edition of Live at Leeds to take place in autumn.  This is the first time in 13 years we’ve had to move Live at Leeds, and doing so brings significant challenges for the festival and the artists alike. But though this virus has brought unprecedented disruption across all industries and around the world, we are determined that it won’t stop us providing you with the event we all deserve when this is over.  

Live at Leeds is one of the leading metropolitan festivals in the UK, with over 100 bands performing in some of Leeds most iconic pubs and clubs from lunch through to the early hours.  

The festival has won numerous awards including best Best Metropolitan Festival’ at the UK Festival awards 2014.  Live at Leeds is a showcase more of the region's emerging musical talent alongside specially selected national acts at the only music festival in the heart of Leeds city centre.
