Leeds City Centre is a hot spot for self-catered events, offering convenience and a lively atmosphere. Stylish venues can be found in popular areas like Quarry Hill and The Calls. If you want something a bit different, Armley, to the west of the city, is a great spot for quirky, affordable self catering spaces like Tungsten Studios. Further out, quieter areas like Otley and Chapel Allerton offer a more relaxed vibe away from the bustle of the city.
Finding an affordable venue is achievable, especially if you’re flexible with location and timing. Look for venues outside the city centre, like in Armley or Beeston, and save money by booking on weekdays or during off-peak times like early afternoons. Smaller venues, like Wizu Workspace or Tailors Gin in the city centre, often have lower rates if you don’t need a lot of space.
Book your venue at least 3 to 6 months in advance, especially in in-demand areas like Leeds City Centre, Holbeck Urban Village, or Quarry Hill, and during peak times like summer weekends or the festive season. You might have a bit more flexibility for smaller or more out-of-the-way places, but it’s always good to be prepared.
