Getting here

Boom is at Canalside, on Armley Road, a short way west of the city centre. There is no parking at the venue, so please come by public transport, on foot, by bike or by taxi if you can.

By train or coach

• From Leeds railway station: about 25 to 30 minutes (1.4 miles) on foot, or 5 to 10 minutes by taxi.
• From Leeds bus station: about 35 to 40 minutes (2 miles) on foot, or 10 minutes by taxi.

The quickest way on foot from the station is along Wellington Road. After dark, stick to Wellington Road rather than the canal towpath, which is unlit in places.

The nearest taxi rank is at the railway station, on Bishopgate Street. Taxis in Leeds are metered: a daytime trip from the station is a few pounds more than a short hop, and the night rate is higher.

By bus

• 16 and 16A: from City Square and Wellington Street towards Pudsey, about every 20 to 30 minutes in the evening, last back into town around 11pm. Get off at New Wortley, The Roundhouse (Wellington Road).
• 4 and 4F: from City Square towards Pudsey, about every 30 minutes in the evening, last bus out around 10:15pm. Get off at New Wortley, The Roundhouse (Wellington Road).
• 72 (First Bradford): from Leeds bus station via The Headrow and Wellington Bridge, towards Bradford; the latest option, with buses until nearly midnight. Get off at New Wortley, Armley Road Bottom.
• 42, 55, 65 and 74: also serve The Roundhouse stop from the city centre; check times on the night. Get off at New Wortley, The Roundhouse (Wellington Road).

Roadworks around Armley Gyratory have diverted these routes before. Check First Bus’s service updates on the day.

Last trains home

Rough times of the last direct train from Leeds. Timetables change, and engineering work happens at weekends, so always check on the day with National Rail.
