The Leeds West Indian Carnival is set to return on the August Bank Holiday weekend, and there
00:06
is a slightly updated route this year requiring less road closures which is due to cause less
00:12
disruption.
00:13
The 26th of August parade route will take in Hare Hills Avenue, Spencer Place, Rounday
00:18
Road, Barrack Road and Chapel Town Road.
00:21
All of those roads will be fully closed from 6am to 10pm, with most public transport links
00:27
and access to St James' Hospital being maintained.
00:31
There will also be some road closures on Chapel Town Road and Hare Hills Avenue on Sunday
00:35
25th August.
00:38
Starting at 2pm at Potter Newton Park on Bank Holiday Monday, Carnival troops will do two
00:43
laps of the new route, giving spectators more opportunity to take in the parade's journey.
00:49
The first lap allows judges to evaluate the array of displays, and the second lap is for

the troops to enjoy the celebrations ahead of their final park performances.
