Leeds comedy club giving away 300 free tickets stashed around popular independent venues
Tickets will be available on a first-come, first-served basis
People visiting some of Leeds' favourite independent cafes, bakeries and restaurants this August could bag themselves free tickets to a comedy show as part of a new city-wide giveaway.
Albion Street comedy venue The Glee Club is teaming up with some of the city’s hospitality spots next month to give away free show tickets.
Launching on Monday (August 3), The Big Glee Giveaway will see 300 free tickets distributed through a selection of businesses, giving customers the opportunity to win a free night of live comedy.
People can visit the participating businesses, make a purchase and ask for a pair of complimentary tickets.
Among the businesses taking part are Things in Bread, Ryde Studios, Rinse, Bake, Bottle Chop, Cheesy Living Co, Little Bao Boy, House of Koko, Doh'Hut and Savvy Baker.
Tickets will be available on a first-come, first-served basis from Monday.
The Glee Club said the campaign has been designed to introduce new customers to the venue, and to some of Leeds' thriving independent businesses, while rewarding loyal customers with a free night of entertainment.
The Glee Club founder, Mark Tughan, said: "Independent businesses are at the heart of what makes Leeds such a vibrant city.
“We wanted to create a giveaway that not only rewards our audiences with a great night out but also shines a spotlight on the fantastic local businesses that deserve our support.
“By working together, we hope to introduce people to somewhere new, encourage them to shop local and create some laughter across the city throughout August."
