A Trip to 1960s Leeds
Step back in time 60 years and visit Leeds at the dawn of a new age with a time travelling resident!
Made in collaboration with Leeds Civic Trust to mark their 60th anniversary. Visit the city in a time when terraces made way for high-rise flats, Lewis's and Schofield's battled for customers and the first West Indian Carnival was taking place. Join our promenade into Leeds’ radical past, led by a young resident of the 1960s played by an experienced actor and historian. This event is part tour-part promenade performance. This is a unique experience that shouldn’t be missed!
We will start at City Square before moving on to a loop of the city centre. This journey will take approximately an hour and end at City Square. Both local and national history will be covered. Leeds Civic Trust members receive a special rate on their tickets, no Green Shield Stamps needed!
