It’s time to say goodbye to 2023 and hello to 2024, so let’s do it in style.

Whether you’re after an indulgent set menu to enjoy with friends and family or looking for somewhere to let your hair down one last time for the year, we’ve got you covered.
We’ve pulled together a list of where in Leeds you can bring in the New Year, keep reading to find out.
Bundobust
What better place to bring in the new year than everyone’s favourite Indian street food spot. Yes you read that correctly, Bundobust is hosting a special, one-off, bottomless brunch New Years Eve extravaganza and we absolutely can’t wait.
The ‘Bundobust Hoote-naan-y’ (class name by the way) includes both a bottomless brunch and a groovy late night party with DJs and an exclusive, limited edition Bundo remix menu.
