Welcome to Left Bank Leeds, a new arts and events venue based in the unexpected and breathtaking surroundings of the former St Margaret of Antioch church building on Cardigan Rd, Leeds 6.

Work is underway to renovate the building and we expect to be fully operational in 2010, but we are already using Left Bank for music, arts events and weddings.

Where are we up to?

We have received funding from English Heritage to repair the fabric of the building.

The repair work will be followed by additional building work and internal development – installing new heating, lighting and all internal facilities. For this and future development plans we estimate that we will need to raise several million pounds.

Repair work began in July 2008, with a target date of September 2010 for the whole building to be up and running.

In the meantime the building will still be available for use, subject to building work. Recent use has included filming for television, a wedding service and a wedding reception. Concerts, exhibitions, photo shoots and sound recordings are also possible. Please join our mailing list to be kept up to date with developments, news and events.
