Light Night transformed Leeds city centre into an illuminated wonderland, featuring free arts performances, exhibitions, installations and activities.

The event saw 50 venues hosting a range of more than 70 events, most of which continued until midnight.

The Leeds Met programme for Light Night involves over 300 students and staff in creating and delivering innovative and creative site specific projects. Especially for our new students this is an opportunity to get to know their city, while for many their project will be integrated into their course. The range was greater this year than ever. Among others spectators enjoyed projections and performance at Broadcasting Place, animation of Queen Square by Performing Arts students, populating the city of Leeds Met Gallery's Into the Woods to the Peoples Light Night in Millennium Square and a live music festival outside the library by Innovation North students.

Professor Max Farrar, Professor for Community Engagement, as the coordinator of the David Oluwale Memorial Committee, led a walk around the city centre and the waterfront, highlighting sites of significance in the David Oluwale story.

All Leeds Met students are offered the opportunity to shine and volunteer as a Light Night Cultural Ambassador, working on a variety of roles to support this year's project and help the people of Leeds enjoy the Leeds Met events on Light Night itself.
