Corporate Events & Conferences
The compact city centre is truly accessible with over 40 conference hotels and more unusual venues and
3,500 bedrooms within walking distance of Leeds Train Station.
The Queens has commanded City Square for almost 100 years as one of the city’s most prestigious hotels and after completion of its £10million refurbishment it's easy to see why it was awarded the Yorkshire Tourist Board’s Award for Business Tourism.
The Radisson SAS is Yorkshire Business Hotel of the Year and 2009 will see the opening of the award winning City Inn just a few minutes walk from Leeds Train Station.
Non-residential venues include
Saviles Hall at the
Royal Armouries, the city’s largest capacity venue for up to 1,000 conference delegates, the majestic
Leeds Town Hall and the striking new £50m Rose Bowl with state of the art facilities.
Incentives
Leeds has a rich cultural heritage with our own opera and ballet companies;
Opera North and Northern Ballet, West Yorkshire Playhouse, the largest producing theatre in the UK outside of London and Stratford, the
Leeds International Concert Season, the
Leeds International Film Festival and the newly refurbished
Leeds Grand Theatre and Opera House so you'll see why no matter the time of year great evening incentive ideas for your delegates are not a problem.
The city also has a rich sporting heritage with
Headingley home to our rugby union and league teams as well as
Yorkshire County Cricket Club and this year a venue for the Ashes. We can also provide great corporate hospitality at
Elland Road, home to Leeds United, thrilling horse racing at
Wetherby and a taste of tradition at the Bramham Horse Trials.
