Carriage Works Theatre

Carriageworks Theatre is a place where old meets new. Built as a carriage manufacturer in 1848, the Victorian building was reimagined and opened in 2005 as a cultural hub in the city centre. There’s always space to play, laugh, discover and create.

Each year the Carriageworks hosts some of Leeds’ best arts and cultural events, including Leeds Young Film Festival, INDIs Film Festival, Leeds Lit Festival, and its hugely popular annual pantomime. It is also a partner of the newly-formed Leeds in Motion street festival that supports the annual sporting event AJ Bell World Triathlon Leeds.

Note – Carriageworks has lots to offer, but it does have a bar selling alcoholic drinks. If you think that might be an issue for you. Please be mindful.

This Grade II Listed building formerly housed the West Riding Carriage Manufactory, hence the new Theatre’s name of the Carriageworks.
