Get ready to roll, Leeds! August was an absolutely massive month for our community, and the energy is carrying right into September. While our own app’s feed was quiet, the city itself was buzzing with incredible events, proving the Leeds skate scene is more vibrant than ever. The absolute showstopper is the arrival of Northern Roll 2025, England’s largest roller-skate festival, landing right at the end of the month with masterclasses, discos, and more!
It’s not just about the big festival, though. The entire month has been packed with opportunities to skate. The amazing folks at The Skate Sanctuary have been keeping the vibes high with their weekly Friday Night ROLL IN & ROLL OUT for adults and family-friendly Daytime Roller Discos every Saturday. Plus, for anyone looking to get started, LS-TEN has been offering incredible FREE guided roller-skating sessions at Kirkgate Market. What a fantastic month to be on eight wheels in Leeds!
Who's a Leeds Legend?
The skater feed was quiet this August. We’re on the lookout for the skaters who are pushing the scene forward in Leeds. See someone with amazing style or a great attitude? Give them a shout-out in the app and let’s celebrate our local talent!
