Leeds is the business and shopping capital of West Yorkshire and the gateway to the Dales. Groups book here for conferences and office events, nights out, university moves, and trips to Headingley for cricket and rugby. The Leeds Festival at Bramham Park and the Leeds West Indian Carnival bring some of the busiest weekends of the year in August.
The city centre has a large pedestrian core and a busy loop road, and the station is one of the busiest outside London. Picking a pickup point a vehicle can reach easily makes a big difference here.

For nights out and gigs, a 16 seater minibus can drop off closer to the venue than a coach. Students moving in or out of halls need luggage space more than seats, so a minibus with a large boot area is often the right choice.
School trips to the Royal Armouries or the coast, and supporters' clubs travelling to away matches, usually book a coach so the whole group stays together.
The test match at Headingley is one of the highlights of the summer. August brings both the Leeds Festival at Bramham Park and the Leeds West Indian Carnival in Chapeltown, one of the oldest Caribbean carnivals in Europe.
