New season has landed

We’ve been busy working with our friens at DesignTonic Ltd and Leeds United to showcase the delivery of a multi-million-pound transformation at Elland Road, enhancing hospitality, corporate and player facilities across Elland Road and the club’s Thorp Arch training ground.

The project has seen Design Tonic deliver more than 30,000 sq ft of new and refurbished space, including a new 1,000-capacity marquee that will house West Stand hospitality during the club’s major stadium redevelopment.

Here’s a sneak peek at the transformation 👀⚽

It's game time!

News on our latest project with Centre Securities PLC just dropped.

Leeds is set to welcome an exciting new addition to the city’s interactive gaming scene as Prison Island prepares to open its first venue in the North of England, at the Merrion Centre.

The new multi-activity entertainment venue on Merrion Street will take 11,000 sq ft across two floors at the Centre and create 18 new jobs.

At the heart of the venue will be Prison Island, an immersive team challenge that sees players in teams of up to five tackle a series of themed cells designed to test physical ability, skill, teamwork and problem-solving. Unlike a traditional escape room, teams can take on a variety of challenges, creating a different experience with every visit.

Head to Yorkshire Post for the full story.

Starting the week on site

Excited to see Leeds’ nightlife scene taken up a notch with Mint XL XL landing in the city next month, bringing some of the biggest names in electronic music to Leeds’ largest nightclub and events space.

As huge fans of the original Mint Club and Mint Festival festival, I’m delighted to be working with the team on the launch campaign and helping bring this amazing new space top the city.

The new space is currently undergoing an extensive redevelopment and full-scale renovation, which will see Mint XL transformed into a state-of-the-art venue built around high-spec production, immersive experiences and forward-thinking programming.

Swipe for a look into the club designs and your eyes peeled for more announcements coming soon.

Summer so far

From world-renowned artists and major launches to milestone celebrations, it’s been a busy few weeks for the team. Here’s a quick recap of what we’ve been up to:

Leeds Pride Official Leeds Pride 2026

Following months of planning, Leeds Pride’s landmark 20th anniversary took over the city for a spectacular weekend celebration, welcoming more than 90,000 people. As the event’s PR partner for the third consecutive year, we’re incredibly proud to support one of our favourite events and help showcase everything that makes Leeds Pride such a special occasion for the city.

Victoria Leeds Pop of Pride

We collaborated with Victoria Leeds on its ‘Pop of Pride’ campaign, celebrating two major milestones – 10 years of Victoria Gate and 20 years of Leeds Pride. The campaign brought internationally renowned artist Him What’s His Name’s iconic POPeK balloon dog sculptures to the city, creating a vibrant and memorable celebration for visitors and the local community.

George Takeover Continues.

We’ve been travelling the length of the country with the George team, launching the first standalone George store in Southern England in Maidstone before heading back north to support the latest opening in Barnsley. It’s been a pleasure working alongside the team on six store launches to date, and we’re looking forward to the next opening this autumn.

The Whitehall Restaurant & Bar

We kicked off our new partnership with one of Leeds’ favourite independent restaurants, The Whitehall Restaurant & Bar. We’ll be supporting the team with PR, influencer engagement and campaign activity throughout the year, helping to showcase its fantastic food offering and upcoming menu launches.

Summer Laughs with The Glee Club Leeds

Working with longstanding clientGlee Club to announce their new family show and it team up with some of Leeds’ favourite independent hospitality venues this summer to give away free show tickets. The campaign encourages people to discover and support the local businesses that make Leeds unique, while giving them the chance to enjoy world-class comedy. A brilliant initiative that helps drive footfall to independent venues across the city.
