Leeds Events: Football, Concerts & Festivals
Live events, concerts, sports, theatre and unforgettable tours — handpicked, city by city.
Leeds' calendar runs almost evenly between football and music — our listings track 38 sporting fixtures and 37 concerts — with two large arenas covering most of the city's touring shows.
Elland Road, home to Leeds United, is the busiest venue in our data. First Direct Arena covers the city's largest touring concerts, while O2 Academy Leeds anchors mid-size gigs and club nights. Millennium Square and Roundhay Park add the city's outdoor event spaces, hosting festivals and open-air concerts through the summer.
A near-even split between football and live music, backed by both indoor arenas and outdoor event spaces, gives Leeds a genuinely varied calendar for its size.
Every listing links directly to a trusted ticketing partner for live pricing and availability. Browse the calendar below and filter by category or date to plan your visit.
