The site previously occupied by Cargo and Tiger Tiger will see two exciting new venues open in its place.
Leeds' nightlife scene is set for a resurgence thanks to a whopping £2m investment in one of the city's most iconic entertainment venues.
The site in The Light on Albion Street will welcome two new venues opening in early 2024, and is set to collectively become one of the most exciting spaces in Yorkshire.
The ground floor will welcome Carousel, an upmarket bar that will offer a chilled experience during the day with quality food and drink on offer combined with arcade games.

In the evening it will boast an energetic party atmosphere, making it the perfect destination for any time of day.
Upstairs will welcome Home nightclub, a multi-room club offering aiming to be Leeds' number one late night attraction.
Home will feature great DJs, high levels of production and special VIP experiences for those special occasions.

Having launched in Lincoln back in 2011, Home is now one of the longest-running nightclubs in the UK and has hosted huge names such as Tom Zanetti, Basshunter, Scott Mills and James Hype.
It is expected that the venue will create 100 jobs in the process, with a major refurbishment already taking place of The Light.
Speaking ahead of the launch, Managing Director John O'Donoghue said: "We’re thrilled to be opening our newest venture in Leeds, it’s a great city and was my home for many years. The Light is such an iconic building and the perfect location for the combination of offers we are creating there.

"This will be the first time in over 20 years something completely new and original has been brought to this great space in The Light and we are looking forward to feedback from both former and new customers. Leeds is vibrant and independent; and already has some outstanding leisure and hospitality businesses in the city centre; giving both locals and visitor a warm welcome and a great experience.
"We are excited to have the opportunity to complement all that hard work and quality with our own brand of fun and entertainment in such a flagship development. We can’t wait to get the doors open and invite guests in."
Silver's Deli is opening up a sister shop, and this time it's about everything baked.
We all know and love Silver's Deli for their stacked subs and breakfast sandwiches that could cure any hangover no matter how severe.
They're so good, that they even bagged the coveted Uber Eats Restaurant of the Year Award last year.
And rightly so, because Silver's is absolutely class.
And it seems there's just no stopping Silver's, as they've just announced that they'll be opening a sister shop named Silver's Bakehouse serving up everything, yep you guessed it, baked.
It'll also be in Farsley where the original Silver's is, and they're labelling the new venture as 'your neighbourhood bake shop'.
Announcing the very exciting news to Instagram, Silver's Deli said: "Well it’s happening. I said no more shops, but it’s kinda necessary, and I just love all things baked.
"There’s waaaaaaaaay too many details to share on this right now, but go give our sister shop @silvers_bakehouse a new follow and hold on tight. This is gonna be fun as fuck."

Customers can expect a wider range of Silver's goodies that they're unable to whip up in the current space. From soft amaretti biscuits and their famous cookies to sausage rolls and brownies that the team have been working on for 12 months.
We're in no doubt that this venture is going to be absolutely brilliant, and you best believe we'll be first in line to try one of those brownies.
Silver's Bakehouse will be located on Town Street in Farsley and is expected to open this May.

This architectural conversion has taken five years to complete and there's been no expense spared, the pulpit and pews have even been kept to really keep that churchy vibe.
Here's what the listing says: "Welcome to The Old Methodist Church, originally built in 1846 and beautifully transformed over the past five years into a truly exceptional home.
"This remarkable conversion seamlessly blends contemporary living with the building’s historic charm, creating a residence that is both striking and deeply characterful.
