Street Food Market With Live Music Returns to Leeds this July

Summer weekends with some of the very best street food, drink, music and entertainment, as the latest street food and makers’ market, Tower Works Street Fest is back from Friday, 4th to Sunday, 6th of July.

The team behind the award-winning North Leeds, Harrogate, Ilkley and Ripley Castle Food & Drink Festivals will bring back the Tower Works Street Fest at Mustard Wharf after a successful debut last year.

The market will be in Verona Square, just off Globe Road and surrounded by Tower Works and its three iconic Venetian towers, which dominate the skyline.

On the first weekend of each month until September, this free-to-attend festival brings a whole new street food and makers market concept to Leeds.

The iconic towers are home to popular attractions like BAKE, Midnight Bell, Cross Keys, 92 Degrees Coffee and Barrecore – as well as been situated beside the scenic canal and just a stone’s throw from Leeds Train Station.

Last year saw thousands of foodies, influencers and familiar faces flock to the launch weekend, and this year’s event is expected to be even better.

Attendees can “expect a jam-packed lineup of some of the best street food and drink vendors, artisan markets, independent bars, groovy tunes as well as plenty of furniture to lounge on”.

Tower Works Street Fest Production Manager Michael Johnston said: “The vibe at June’s festival was out of this world, and we can’t wait to bring it back this month, making it even better than the last. With top-notch international food and drink vendors from across the north and live music on Friday and Saturday night, it’s going to be a great one.”
