Another commented: “Leeds is a fantastic city with something on offer for anything you’re looking for. Great live music venues with a huge variety like Brudenell, Belgrave, Headrow house, O2 and more. There’s a wide range of places to eat, so you can find anything you want with a great atmosphere easily. Also, there’s a really big party scene and you can always find fun in bars if you don’t want to stay raving until 5 am. They have heaps of activities and are super close to some fantastic nature in the dales.”
