Leeds Festival 2022 road closures: full list of roads closed over August bank holiday weekend
Leeds Festival has begun, so please be wary of several road closures which could disrupt your travel plans.
Preparations are continuing ahead of one of the biggest festivals in the United Kingdom, as the city has announced planned road closures for Leeds Festival 2022.
Music fans flock to the grounds of Bramham Park in their tens of thousands, with last year’s return event from the Covid-19 pandemic totalling at a near-90,000 attendance.
Organisers are expecting that number to rise for the 2022 iteration, especially with a groundbreaking line-up with headliners such as Yorkshire’s Arctic Monkeys - yet tickets are still available.
This is despite the fact that weather experts are expecting rainfall and a few thunderstorms to batter West Yorkshire around the time of the event.
As with every Leeds Festival each year, there are planned road closures throughout the region that could disrupt travel plans.
Yorkshire Evening Post has you covered with all the latest information regarding road closures and the period of time they are closed for.
