Leeds boasts a magnitude of attractions. Shopping, being the main attraction for many is huge here. Stores such as Harvey Nichols, House of Fraser, The White Rose Shopping Centre and even Primark pull in new visitor’s everyday.

Leeds’ culture is notable as it hosts four theatres and its own opera and ballet companies. Well known for its music artists such as the Kaiser Chiefs, Shed Seven and Dire Straits, Leeds is also a top spot for big performers including Robbie Williams, James Blunt, Muse, and many more. The Leeds festival held annually over the August bank holiday proves that the music scene in Leeds is growing bigger by the minute with hot new bands coming out every month. Leeds also has some great architecture to offer the visitor. The Town Hall is a magnificent building and is often used to host concerts. Leeds City Art Gallery hosts some exquisite collections and the Royal Armouries is world famous for its unique collection.

In the winter months, the newly converted ‘Millennium Square’ hosts an ice-rink known as the ‘Ice Cube’ which has proved to be very popular. Leeds is also well known for being the home of Yorkshire cricket; Headingley hosts the headquarters, and of course Elland Road is the home of Leeds United Football Club. Outside of Leeds are places of interest such as Harewood House which is open to the public from March to October. Pretty little towns such as Ilkley offer a gateway to the Yorkshire Dales, and Harrogate, another picturesque spa town which is also known for its shopping.
