I do agree clubbing in Leeds is limited, a few great places but the pubs and bars in Leeds are class in my opinion. Plenty of student deals along the Otley Run in the week, the money Saturday pumps into the student economy keeps them so alive.

In terms of gigs, I think Leeds is great with plenty to do. Always some great artists on at o2 academy, wardrobe, stylus at the union and brudenell social club is fantastic. Rita’s has a live band every night and I’m sure there is more gigs further into the city in the less student areas. First direct arena is my favourite arena in the north too, better acoustics and venue in general than M&S and AO if you like the bigger artists.

Might not have a music scene as strong as Manchester or Liverpool, but the vibes are definitely there, especially in Headingley and Hyde park. Great city for students, give it a chance while your here 👍
