Freedom Mills is a trendy events space and venue in Leeds, UK. Primarily a music venue, regular gigs and a top club night programme run alongside a wider array of artistic and music-focused shows.

Here, an ever-evolving variety of performances meet a consistently electric atmosphere, perfect for a one-time gig to see a favourite band, or an old school rave. One night out may turn into many, however, as it is the ‘underground’ feeling which keeps the regulars returning back.
