Leeds Pride 2023: Full list of road closures, bus diversions and route changes ahead of pride parade

Every year, Leeds welcomes a colourful celebration of diversity and inclusivity, with lively music, an extravagant parade and unmissable parties. From 1.30pm next Sunday (August 6), buses will be diverted before resuming their normal routes once roads have re-opened, and it is safe to do so.

Thousands of people are expected to descend on the city for the return of the event, with performances and speeches on the Sainsbury’s stage in Millennium Square set to begin from 11.30am – from there the route will follow to Cookridge Street, The Headrow, Vicar Lane, Kirkgate, York Street, Duke Street, Kirkgate, High Court, The Calls, Call Lane and Lower Briggate.

Lower Briggate, Call Lane and Meadow Lane will be closed for the duration of the day so services using these roads will be diverted throughout. See the full list of diversions below:
