The day Leeds Roundhay Park hosted a dance party for 300,000 clubbers

It was a dance party to remember and one which attracted 300,000 clubbers to Roundhay Park.

Organised by Radio 1 the city's green gem hosted Love Parade back in July 2000 - a free ten hour party which attracted the biggest names in the dance world. The dress code for the day was wear as little as possible and a big smile. Were you among the huge crowd? Enjoy these photos, plucked from the YEP archive, of a day to remember.
