Thinking of going to leeds Nov 5-7th and looking for things to do, thinking of a firework display one night and going to the xcape snow dome another, just struggling to find any information about an organised display online. They all seem to be on the 4th.

Can any of the Yorkshire members help me out here, what else would be good to do :eek:

Few too many tins is what im blaming ;)
 
You cant visit leeds without taking a trip to King Kebab.

Other than that, cant really help. What kind of things are you into? Or are you just interested in the firework displays?

Near Xscape there is a place called Pontefract park, (where the cakes come from!) it has a cracking bonfire but I don't know when it will be this year.

Leeds

Things to do:
  • Royal Armories.
  • Shopping on briggate
  • Roundhay park and roll down the hill
  • Harewood House, woot.
  • Go watch Leeds lose at either football or rugby
  • I can't think of anything now.
Things not to do:
  • Go into the Fforde Greene pub without a weapon
  • Wander round Harehills, Chapeltown or Gipton at night, alone.
  • Just stay in the city centre
