How to get to Leeds & where to stay

Leeds is served by great transport links so it's generally easy to reach by road or public transport.  All the hotels we recommend are an easy walking distance from Leeds station and affordable car parks.

What to wear

Newcomers often ask what they should wear to Leeds First Friday & our answer always starts the same way. Wear whatever you feel comfortable in!

Consider that you might have to walk a little way, so maybe those skyscraper heels might not be the best idea for your first time out.

Otherwise, just wear whatever makes you YOU.

Where to meet

The 'main' event starts at 7pm at Bridge End Social, but if you're new you might want to check out MADEIT, our special one hour event especially for welcoming newcomers.  MADEIT starts at 7pm in Bridge Bar & heads over to Bridge End Social around 8pm.

I'm nervous.  Help!

We've all been there at one point or other, don't worry.  Message one of the team to let them know you plan to attend and they can help with directions and any other questions you might have.
