The best things to do in and around Leeds this week | 24 – 30 June 2024
We’re into the final week of June, and we just can’t believe how quickly this month has flown by.
Well you know what they say, ‘time flies when you’re having fun’, and all that.
But despite how much of a cliché that saying is, it definitely sums up these last few weeks, as Leeds has been bursting at the seams with exciting things to get up to.
If you’re struggling to decide what to get up to this week, then allow us to help with our weekly edition of our ‘what’s on’ guide.
Miles & Co. Opening
Monday 24 June | Koncept Studio, 94 Kirkgate, LS2 7DJ
We’ve spent many a morning popping into the market for coffee at Miles & Co. so we’re feeling very spoilt having two to choose from.
Taking over the ground floor of Koncept Studio on Kirkgate, they’ve absolutely nailed the brief of an inviting, bright space to relax and grab a cup of Joe. With a gorgeous outside area and the smell of freshly brewing Darkwoods coffee wafting out the door, it would be a challenge not to pop your head in when walking past.
So pop in and see the new space we’re sure you’re going to love it.
Euro 2024 Fanzone
Tuesday 25 June 2024 | Millennium Square
Millennium Square will play host to the Euro 2024 Fanzone with all England’s group stage matches against Serbia, Denmark, and Slovenia, as well as the knock-out stages, broadcast live on the Leeds Big Screen.

Thor’s Tipi Outdoor Bar
All week | City Square
Thor’s Tipi, a popular name in Yorkshire already, has opened a huge pop-up bar in Leeds just in time for the summer. With a big screen, outdoor seating, and (of course) a tipi, the huge space is set to open in City Square in just a few weeks’ time.
Thor’s Tipi will be serving up a selection of cocktails and street food, and punters can get stuck in to giant outdoor games, easels, and loads of events including performances from local bands.
