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.”
