Young people in South Leeds can look forward to another sparkling summer of outdoor fun with free Activity Days and Breeze In The Park visiting sites around the area.
Breeze will bring a jam-packed array of activities, featuring everything from sports and games to art and music – and, of course, Breeze’s famous giant inflatables to:
Cross Flatts Park – Friday 31 July, 12-4pm
Coopers Field, Belle Isle – Wednesday 5 August, 12-4pm
Middleton Park – Friday 7 August, 12-4pm
Organised by Leeds City Council, the roadshow-style programme play days for children and teenagers
Partner organisations and other council services – including Zero Waste Leeds, Leeds Young Film and Leeds Libraries – will also be running a range of taster workshops and hands-on experiences.
The event in Middleton Park will include relaxed and quieter session for children with additional needs from 11am-12pm.
Each day will have two main sessions, one running from noon to 2.30pm and the second from 3pm to 5.30pm. The sessions for children with additional needs will run from 11am to noon.
Sessions cost £1 per child and tickets must be bought in advance. Purchases can be made here or, for additional needs sessions, here. A full list of event dates and locations can be found on the same web pages.
Breeze In The Park is funded with the generous support of the council’s network of local community committees.
Breeze Pass holders get fast-track access to some of the most popular inflatable attractions. Please note, pass holders must still purchase tickets in advance.

While you’re here, can we ask a favour?
South Leeds Life is published by a not-for-profit social enterprise. We keep our costs as low as possible but we’ve been hit by increases in the print costs for our monthly newspaper which have doubled in the last two years.
