Street Food Market With Live Music Returns to Leeds this September

Soak up the last of summer, Tower Works Street Fest is back from Friday, 5th to Sunday, 7th of September 2025.

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.

The entrance to the street festival

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.

Less than a five-minute walk from the station and Northern Monk Refectory, it couldn’t be a better central Leeds spot.

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”.

Our September street fest is looking bigger and better than ever, we can’t wait to welcome everyone back!”
