Leeds Festival Fringe Event launched
The city of Leeds is set to host a Leeds Festival Fringe event in August to coincide with Leeds 2010.
While Reading Festival has had a fringe event for a number of years, the same has not been true of its northern counterpart Leeds (although we did operate the Unsigned / BBC Introducing Stage for a couple of years before they eventually caught on).
Well times have changed as the Leeds Festival Fringe 2010 event has been revealed.
The fringe event is set to run for 7 nights from 19th August to 25th August, allowing fans to head over to Bramham Park afterwards for the festival proper. So far, two venues in the city are lined up to play a part in the festival fringe action: Carpe Diem and Royal Park Cellars.
In addition to the pre-festival events, an extra night on Monday 30th August is expected to be run for all Leeds Festival fans who are still in the city and still in the party mood!
For more details head over to the Leeds Festival Fringe website.

what a mint idea-cant wait-leeds has been calling for something like this for a long time-nice work! loadsa support up behind this one-sure itll be a right success! xx
Liverpool Bands & Friends, the most excellent, beautifully thriving, overly active : )
even,
Myspace Community which is run, by Mr Tony Donaghey
( and the lovely Trish.x )….
Are indeed the first ever Live Music Loving City Guests for the first ever:
Leeds Festival Fringe 2010.
One guest Live Music Loving City will be hosting a takeover every single year now at all, future Leeds Festival Fringe Events.
The first choice had to be the Liverpool crew, music heads, legends, with decades of class, underground, even “lost” great bands and musicians all coming together,working,helping, advising each other, chit chatting online, assisting the unsigned fresh new talent of the City of Liverpool, in such a way, many many more music loving Cities, and Communities follow.
All siphoned through Tony’s knowledgeable, fact based,working, living and breathing, long established Myspace Community.
That said we know, the guys will love love love coming to Leeds in August, we know we are in for a treat, and I hope live music loving fans, at free entry events here in the City, will be making our first guests more then welcome:
So, with all that now in place, all that is left to be said:
Is….
Welcome on board.
Liverpool Bands & Friends….takeover Leeds Festival Fringe@Carpe Diem, Leeds.

Friday 20th August 2010, 7pm-12 midnight, free entry.

LFF 2010.
Liverpool Bands http://www.myspace.com/liverpoolbandsfriends is pleased to be associated with the event – from the excellent music scene in the City its difficult to choose and limit the bands to only 4 – but these are the ones who I feel will give a great account of themselves and highlight the diversity of acts doing the Liverpool circuit.

Hello. Looking forward to this. I am growing my fringe.
Saturday 21st at Carpe Diem – extended Grain Division. Already looking decent.
Once again someone comes up with a great idea (nice one Mickey).
This should be a great platform for all the exceptionally talented folk of Leeds and the surrounds.
Although it allies its self with the leviathan of Leeds fest and Im more a supporter of the smaller intimate Festival like Moorfest, i think its all worth while and should be fully supported.
Im sure if you cant get to see some of the great local talent on show at one of the many gigs to be organised you are likely to catch them on a stage somewhere in a field nr Skipton.
