With the Jubilee four-day weekend only a few short weeks away, it's time to make plans.
Greek Street is known as an all-year party spot, with bars open until the early hours- but now the notorious street is bringing its businesses together for a huge street party over the Jubilee bank holiday weekend.
Given the four-day weekend extravaganza ahead, Greek Street is bringing the celebrations from evening to afternoon so you can spend more time drinking and dancing than ever before.
Kicking the event off at midday on Thursday 2 June 2022, there will be no less than three DJs playing across the centre of Greek Street for a whopping ten hours in front of Yorkshire House.
Expect the very best of cheesy tunes, old school R&B, as well as dance tracks and modern beats as the sky fades into pastel nighttime hues and the party continues late into the night.

Acting as one big street party, this really will be the ultimate city centre event.
There's a whopping nine bars and restaurants confirmed to take part so far, each of which will allow the use of special Jubilee recyclable cups to take out of the venues to wander (or dance) around the street.
Confirmed to take place so far, Manahatta will be at the heart of the action with sponsors Hendricks whilst The Alchemist will be supplying the Patrón spirits. You'll dee The Lost & Found and Salon de Privé (Dakota) sporting the very best of No. 3 gin whilst Gusto will be sponsored by Grey Goose and Neighbourhood will host two suppliers: Pimms and Tanqueray.
The Liquorist All Bar One, and Wetherspoons will also be getting involved in the street party and keep the drinks flowing far later than the 10pm finish time of the official street party event.
For more information, or to find out about how you can party like it's a Jubilee bank holiday weekend, visit any of the participating restaurants and bars to find out more.

Cult favourite burger chain Burgerism is officially coming to Leeds this August
An award-winning burger chain is coming to one of Leeds' suburbs.
If you don't know Burgerism, then get to know.
The Manchester-based burger chain is known by many for its incredible smash patties and quick, reliable service.
Their concept is simple: good burgers made with quality ingredients and cooked fresh to order. Delicious.
And it's not just burgers, they've also got some great wings and fries available too with a range of homemade sauces on offer for dunking, drizzling and devouring. We're a particular fan of the buffalo wings with their garlic ranch dip.
The chain used to have a dark kitchen on the outskirts of the city where people could order via Deliveroo, however this closed down and since then there's been a Burgerism-shaped hole left in our foodie scene.

Burgerism recently applied to move into a vacant shop unit in Meanwood at 605 Meanwood Road, seeking change-of-use planning permission for the former Papa Johns site which was previously only allowed to serve...well, pizzas.
And the plans have now been approved, which means Burgerism will officially be coming to Leeds. Hurray!
Burgerism's new takeaway will be walking distance from the The Meanwood Tavern, perfect for those looking for some post-pint burgers.
It will be strictly takeaway with no dine-in option available.
The brand-new Burgerism will employ 15 people from the local area with food being served between 11am and 11pm.
We'll keep you up to date as and when we find out more, but for now we're aware that Burgerism Leeds is set to open this August.
A new Irish bar with live music is opening in Leeds this weekend
Clementine Hall
We hope you like Guinness, because Leeds city centre is gaining another Irish bar.
If you're looking for a guaranteed night of fun, then you can do a lot worse than heading to your nearest Irish bar, grabbing a pint of the black stuff and dancing to some Irish music.
Located on Swinegate near the Malmaison Hotel, The Temple Tavern promises an authentic Irish experience.
We're talking plenty of Guinness, live music and of course, great craic. Although the latter part sort of relies on you...
Announcing the news to Instagram, The Temple Tavern said: "Swinegate… we’re coming for you. A brand new Irish bar is on the way, and we can’t wait to show you what we’ve been working on.
"Think great pints, proper Irish charm, and the kind of atmosphere that keeps you out longer than planned. No gimmicks — just good craic, great drinks, and even better nights. Opening soon. Stay tuned."

And the opening night is here, as the new bar will be soft launching today Friday 3 July at 4pm, they continued: "Expect creamy Guinness, proper craic, authentic Irish music, and the warmest Irish welcome in Leeds. Be one of the first to raise a pint with us."
So rally your mates together, hit up the group chat and pay a visit to the city's newest bar, it'll be cheaper than a trip to Dublin that's for sure.
