Venues include well-known names such as The Alchemist, Banyan, Jake's Bar & Still Room, Chaophraya, Manahatta, Electric Shuffle, Power, Corruption & Lies, Blackhouse and Uyare.

Each venue will be shaking up its own signature cocktail, with a mocktail option available at every participating location.

The event is hosted by M.ad Agency, which organises Cocktail Week events across the UK.

Speaking earlier this year, director Alice Chistison said: "We're thrilled to bring Cocktail Week to Leeds for the second year. The city's hospitality scene is something truly special and we're looking forward to working closely with local venues to create something that feels welcoming, fun and sociable.

"Last year proved to be a wonderful opportunity for people to explore the city in a different way."

Wristbands are available to purchase here, starting at £14.95, and grant access to all £5 to £7 cocktails during the event, along with additional offers, including other cocktails and food, at selected venues.
