Canal Mills in Leeds has opened as a corporate events venue following a major refurbishment.

Canal Mills is an 18th century textile mill in the heart of Leeds. It re-opened in 2012 as a creative art, food and music events space with a maximum capacity of 1,400 people.

The refurbishment project has restored Canal Mills back to its former glory. The walls have been sand blasted to expose the original red/gold Victorian brick work with exposed beams. The Mills benefit from a high ceiling. The end result is a flexible venue capable of hosting a wide range of events.

Canal Mills is a ’blank canvas’ space. It includes a private area for drinks receptions or for conference delegate registration.

Canal Mills can be used for outdoor events. It has wooden decking and seating with space to accommodate a marquee alongside.

Canal Mills hire includes some staging with a hi-tech sound system. Wi-fi is complimentary throughout.

Canal Mills is located in Brandon Street just off the A58 in Leeds and close to the M62, M1 and M621 at Junction 2.
