Weather in Leeds

Best time to visit

Leeds is a great place to visit all year round, but head there in summer and you'll get better weather, plus you can try to make it to the Leeds Music Festival, one of the highlights of the year. It’s cold and often snowy in winter, while the weather tends to be rainiest in the autumn. Anytime from February on is good for sporting fans, as this is when football fixtures begin to kick off.
