Like your live music with a side of ball-calling fun? Get on down to Soul Bingo at Revolucion de Cuba Leeds. As you dab frantically in search of a full house, you'll groove to the tunes of classic Motown and soul.

We're talking Luther Vandross, Chaka Khan, Anita Baker, Whitney Houston and plenty more. Grab your tickets from just £11.

If you're looking for some laidback live music in the city centre, The White Swan's got your back. Every Sunday, its resident pianist gets behind the keys of the old Joanna to belt out crowd-pleasing classics.

Over on the Sunday lunch menu, there's the perfect accompaniment to twinkling ivories. Take your pick from beef topside, belly pork with crispy crackling, chicken breast or nut roast, served up with all the trimmings and a rich red wine gravy.

You can spend your whole night at The Wardrobe. For some pre-gig food, you can eat in the upstairs bar and restaurant, washing it down with a selection of cocktails and beers (they often do pre-gig deals too!). Then once the music starts, expect to hear the sweet sounds of Indie in their intimate venue.

Situated in Leeds, Bootlegger is promising live tunes in a unique space - think vintage decor and nods to the Prohibition era. You'll get to enjoy everything from soul and blues from the 1920s to rock music during the 1950s and 1960s. Ready to swing? This is your place to strut your stuff.

You want alternative? You've got alternative! Welcome to The Key Club, dedicated to hosting local, national, and international bands all in one place. This Leeds live music venue is all about rock, punk pop and alternative, with club nights for those genres too. And if it's a gig, people as young as 14 can go in – so tell your younger siblings.

The HiFi club is more than just a live music venue in Leeds. Not only is it also a nightclub, they host comedy and other fun events too. But if you are here for the tunes, then prepare for everything from hip hop to alternative played at this fun, active space.
