Inside Leeds underground: The grassroot venues keeping music alive in 2026
Look beyond the big stages and you'll see the small Leeds venues that shape the music scene. A £6 gig is great, but what about the reality of grassroot venues struggling to survive?
Picture this, you're in a small bar hidden away in Leeds, the floor is sticky, you're in a dimly-lit room, there's a small crowd of people with a band playing that no one really knows. But the ticket was only £6 so you're not that bothered. It feels like an intimate experience with the performer.

Grassroot venues are where music starts.
