Leeds Loves awards needs you to nominate the best live music venue in the city

We missed gigs and concerts so much during the coronavirus lockdown period.

Now things are looking a little more like ‘normal’ we want you to tell us which live music venue is your favourite in Leeds. This is part of our Leeds Loves awards which aims to celebrate the very best of our wonderful city’s hospitality industry.

We are asking you to get involved and support the campaign by nominating your favourites. We are focusing on the best live music venue Leeds has to offer in this latest article.

We all know the last couple of years have been particularly challenging for that sector because of the coronavirus pandemic. Here at LeedsLive we want to do a little something to say thank you to those businesses that helped keep us going during the difficult times.

The Leeds Loves awards includes 10 categories and we expect the best live music award to be a popular category. So, if you have a favourite in Leeds then make sure you nominate them and give them the recognition they deserve.

It might be the place you saw your favourite band or an intimate venue where you first watched the 'next big thing'. Conversely, it could be a unique venue which hosts summer outdoor gigs or somewhere a little quirky.

You have until midnight on Monday, April 18 to nominate your favourite by filling in this form. We’ll then put shortlists together and open the voting as we look to crown this year's winners.

Once the voting is concluded winners of the Leeds Loves awards will be announced in May. We can’t wait to see who you nominate.

Editor Wayne Ankers said: "It is amazing to see so many venues back open and bustling with customers. So we thought now is the right time to celebrate the best places we have in Leeds and give you the chance to show how much you love them.

"There are so many brilliant venues across the city and it is your chance to show your support. We want to really shout about what our incredible city has to offer so get involved, nominate your favourites and we will do the rest."
