About this event
The Hunslet Festival is a free community celebration held on Church Street in the heart of LS10, bringing the local neighbourhood together for a day of fun on 13th June 2026. It's the kind of event where you'll find families from across the area gathering to enjoy live entertainment, local stalls, and a real sense of community spirit.
As a family-friendly festival, it's well suited to parents with children of all ages, including those with pushchairs, given its street-based setting. Expect a lively mix of activities and performances that reflect the character of the Hunslet area.
Expect a climbing wall, circus skills, animal encounters, interactive arts and play, children’s sports, dance performances, a fire engine visit, police van and kit try-on, youth activities, stalls and more.
A lovely local day out for families in Hunslet, Beeston, Belle Isle, LS10, LS11, across South Leeds and beyond.
