The Victorian Circuses of Leeds
Leeds has a rich tradition in hosting travelling circuses. During the nineteenth century, the city was a favoured venue for visiting circuses.
Research has shown that there were at least twelve sites in Leeds used for circuses during this period.
Dr Steve Ward, a social historian and specialist in circus history, conducts this circular guided walk around the city centre, visiting the identified sites.
There are three booking links, one for each of the three dates. Pleas
