Having brought the likes of John Grant, Savages, Animal Collective, Explosions In The Sky, Polica, Diiv and Connan Mockasin to Leeds in 2016, the Beacons Metro series gives us the chance to bring together our some of our favourite, and some of the most exciting musicians around. With Beacons Metro we have the opportunity to hand-pick and curate extremely exciting bespoke events across our own venues Belgrave Music Hall and Headrow House, as well as taking over spaces like Holy Trinity Church, Howard Assembly Rooms and the city’s universities, all brought together under one season ticket, or as individual shows if you wish to pick and choose."
