Leeds City Council

Just two weeks to go until Leeds lights up like this 🌌

As the city prepares for Light Night Leeds, we’re looking back over some of the fantastic creations that have illuminated Leeds over the past 21(!) years.

Since the festival started in 2005 it has become a staple in the Leeds calendar, bringing thousands of you to interact with illuminated artworks right across the city centre.

This year Light Night Leeds takes on the theme of ‘A City Speaks…’, and, coinciding with our 400th celebrations, it will see over 40 installations that explore the stories, people and places that have shaped Leeds over the past 400 years.
