Welcome to Leeds Stage, Leeds Jazz Festival - 2nd June, 2022

What: Free street festival

Location: Cookridge St, Leeds

The Welcome to Leeds Stage at Leeds Jazz Festival brough together Launchpad / Music:Leeds, Jazz Leeds and Jazz North to curate a selection of emerging and diverse talent to entertain in our family friendly, open air free stage on Cookridge Street across the extended Bank Holiday weekend, Thursday 2nd to Sunday 5th June.

Situated between The Light and Henry Moore Institute, the stage had its own seating area, and live performances from 11am to 6pm each day.

On Thursday 2 June we had a showcase of Launchpad supported artists, these included:

Verity Watts, Jemma Freese, Shantelle King, Ms Wisdom, Rumbi Tauro, Rosie Miles and George Bloomfield.

The Welcome to Leeds Stage was produced by Leeds BID in partnership with New Citizens.

Additional support for the stage came from Eiger Studios who provided the musical backline. Eiger Studios is a recording studio, rehearsal studio and event space just outside Leeds city-centre. Over the last decade they’ve been making records, throwing parties and providing rehearsal spaces and gear hire for the thriving community of bands within Leeds.
