‘Mint’ Things to Do in Leeds This Autumn

Think of Autumn and depending on your idea of a good time, it may or may not be the most enjoyable time of the year. The colder nights render beer gardens obsolete, the rainy weather makes staying at home in front of the television more tempting, and surely dressing up for Halloween is for kids, right?

On the other hand, you might love everything about the changing colour of the leaves, the crisp autumnal air, and the way you look dressed as a sexy vampire…

Regardless of your seasonal preferences, we’ve found some really great things to do in Leeds over the next coming months.
