A LEGO exhibition is coming to Leeds city centre this summer, with dozens of art pieces and sculptures made from these iconic building bricks.
The Art of the Brick will feature life-size and even larger scale models of recognisable animals, famous paintings and more.
We always knew Leeds was blessed but now this confirms it, as this will be the only UK city on the tour of the LEGO artworks.
This art exhibition contains more than 70 pieces and sculptures made entirely out of these building bricks, one million pieces to be exact.
One of the various collections you’ll be able to admire and be in awe of as you walk round is titled ‘Perniciem’, and is a celebration of nature, highlighting the world’s many endangered animals.
This exclusive installation is spreading the love to plenty of animals including giraffes, sharks, gorillas and even flamingos, this day-out is going to be a wild one.

And if you’re after immersing yourself in some culture, The Art of the Brick has got you covered with a handful of the world’s most famous paintings, recreated in LEGO form.
Expect to see works such as Starry Night, The Scream, Girl with a Pearl Earring and The Mona Lisa, as well as many more famous canvases.
This LEGO exhibition has already been viewed by more than 10 million people worldwide.
Of course when visiting this impressive exhibition, it would be rude not to get stuck in, and that’s why there’s a dedicated area for kids and grown ups alike to build their own LEGO creations.
The Art of the Brick is coming to Leeds with dates starting in August, and you can find tickets ranging from £10.90 for kids and £13.90 for adults HERE.
A new Souvlaki Corner is set to open in south Leeds.
If you're a Leeds local who loves food, then you'll have most likely heard and dined at Souvlaki Corner.
It's an absolute gem of a restaurant and takeaway, situated in Wortley selling fabulous authentic Greek food at a great price.
And now they're opening a new site in the nearby town of Morley which is going to be even bigger and better. Get in.
The new site will feature a bigger space with more seating, offering both dine-in and takeaway options, as well as a brand-new bar.

Now you're talking our language.
Souvlaki Corner told The Hoot: "We’re excited to confirm that Souvlaki Corner will be opening a new site in Morley, Leeds. Our targeted opening is in around four weeks, although we don’t have an exact opening date yet and will confirm this closer to the launch.
"One of the highlights of the new restaurant will be a traditional Greek spit where we will cook whole lamb in the proper Greek way. It will be cooked over charcoal to give the authentic Greek flavour that people would experience in Greece.

"Our chefs are Greek, bringing authentic knowledge and experience from Greece. The interior design will also reflect the style of the Greek islands, so when people visit they will feel like they are stepping into a little part of Greece."
They continued: "Souvlaki Corner was created to bring authentic Greek street food to Leeds, focusing on freshly grilled souvlaki, gyros, and traditional flavours served quickly and affordably. Since launching our first location, the response from customers has been fantastic, and Morley felt like the natural next step as we continue to grow."
