About the venue

First Direct Arena

Leeds, LDS

The First Direct Arena is Leeds's striking, fan-shaped arena in the city centre — a building with no sports tenant, designed entirely around live entertainment. Its super-theatre shape pulls every seat to face the stage directly, which is why artists and audiences alike rate it among the best-sounding rooms in the country.

The fan shape is the buying insight: instead of a full oval bowl, the seating wraps in a single direction facing the stage, so there are no behind-the-stage sections at all and even the cheapest seats look straight at the performance. That makes the upper rear rows unusually good value compared with a conventional arena, where that money buys a side or end view.

Every show on sale is listed on this page with live prices — block and row shown before checkout, and with this room, almost any block is a safe pick.
