Located in the city’s Art Quarter, neighbouring Leeds College of Music and BBC Yorkshire, The Wardrobe has been contributing to Leeds’ rich live music offering since its opening in 1999.

The ground floor is a bar, kitchen and occasional event space, while its dedicated event space in the basement is a cosy room with a jazzy vibe. Bands including The Herbaliser, Asian Dub Foundation and The Mouse Outfit can be found on its gig calendar, while DJs Trevor Nelson and Craig Charles regularly host club nights at The Wardrobe. The venue also promotes regular comedy nights.
