There’s lots of fun to look forward to in Leeds during May.
Some huge acts and artists are kicking off the summer fun by headlining major events across our city. This month some of the names topping the bill at music and comedy events include Peter Kay, Duran Duran and Ricky Gervais.
We’ll also see the start of festival season in the city. We have Live at Leeds: In The Park and Slam Dunk Festival to look forward to - both taking place at Temple Newsam.
