A vibrant public space in Leeds, West Yorkshire, featuring a large pedestrianized area, fountains, and a big screen for outdoor performances and events, surrounded by iconic buildings, including the Leeds Civic Hall and the Leeds City Museum.
We struck lucky there was a Fair Ground too, it's a tourist area with lots to do, we spent hours here, parking is very expensive of course, there is a car park that is multistory with lot's of posts to bump your car into for a very expensive day out.
It's a decent enough public facility with water features, often used for temporary events. The BBC Big Screen outside We The Curious occasionally has free films, and there are viewing benches for that purpose. The Planetarium is located in the square. Look out for statues of former notables with a local connection: film actor Cary Grant (born in Bristol), Quaker activist William Penn (local connection unknown), biblical scholar and linguist William Tyndale (once a resident chaplain in Little Sodbury), and poet Thomas Chatterton (born in Bristol).
Visited on a scorching 26 degree day. Kids were loving the water fountains and activities which were set up. Great day out
Had a walk round and went on the big wheel. Was a Sunday evening in February so was very quiet and not much atmosphere. Imagine its a lot more exciting and busy in the summer.
Nice place to come with kids, particularly on a sunny day as there are lots of water features I'm which they can splash and have fun in. Fountains that come out of the ground. Currently there are churro and coffee stalls as well as a beach themed restaurant bar area in the middle which gives it a nice vibe. It's also right next to we the curious, Bristol aquarium and a million different restaurants.
My kids love coming here on a hot day to splash in the water. We dont really use any of the stalls so can't comment on prices ect. Only down side is there is no public toilet. I understand there is plenty of restaurants to go into but i always feel a little rude doing that.
