Whether you’re getting everyone together for a work party, planning a big family get-together or have a big occasion to celebrate, finding the right venue can set the tone for the whole night.
If you’re looking for venue hire options in Leeds, we have loads of choice at Wellington Place –plus we’re just minutes from the train station. To help you narrow them down, we’ve rounded up the best venues, all in one place.
Mad Frans
If it’s a private party you’re looking for, Mad Frans is a great choice. Their space can hold up to 130 people, which means you won’t have to cut the guest list. There’s even a DJ booth so entertainment is sorted.
The space is incredibly versatile. You can choose sit down dining, go for a more relaxed ambience where guests stand and mingle, or do a little bit of both with a canapé or drinks reception on the mezzanine.
And the menu? It’s all up to you. Finger food or fine dining, cocktails or handpicked wines, they’ll build the event around you – you can even meet with the chef directly to bring your vision to life.

Hoist House
Wellington Place’s indie pub, Hoist House offers a more relaxed venue for your parties and get-togethers. It’s bright and airy by day, but wonderfully cosy by night, so you can get the best of both worlds, plus they have an abundance of outdoor seating perfect for those sunny days.
It goes without saying that the beer is excellent here. 17 draught lines offer plenty of choice, while a menu of wine, spirits and soft drinks ensures that everyone is catered for.
They can accommodate large bookings, and because the bar sits right in the heart of the venue, they can create a space that feels private, no matter how big your event is.

The Good Luck Club
This is one of the biggest venues at Wellington Place, so it’ll come as no surprise that The Good Luck Club also caters for the biggest celebrations, with space for up to 200 people.
Of course, you don’t have to book out the whole venue. They have three spaces, the smaller of which holds 20 to 40 people, so whatever the size of your event, you’ll find the perfect fit here.
You can choose from a range of menus too. Grazing boards promise falafel balls, bruschetta and bocconcini, while buffets bring burgers, pizzas and skewers. But in summer, you simply can’t beat their BBQ menu.
