West Yorkshire – where else can you find vibrant cities, quaint villages, industrial heritage, serene valleys, and expansive moorlands all coexist in harmonious contrast.

Notably, West Yorkshire has inspired art and literature for centuries, including the Bronte sisters, David Hockney and Barbara Hepworth. Today West Yorkshire graces big (and small) screens as an inspirational filming location for producers and directors looking for dramatic backdrops and stunning architecture.

And there’s no better time to explore the region, as over the next few years culture takes centre stage including Leeds 2023: Year of Culture, Kirklees Year of Music (2023), Culturedale (2024), Our Year in Wakefield (2024) and Bradford City of Culture 2025.
