Leeds City Centre is gearing up for an incredible weekend of celebration with the Leeds Pride Parade on Saturday 18th July and Sunday 19th July 2026!
To make room for the festivities and ensure everyone can celebrate safely, several city centre streets will be pedestrianised. This means local bus operators (including First Leeds, Arriva, Transdev, and local Park & Ride services) will be shifting their routes slightly over the weekend.
π Which lines are affected?
Because the Pride events span both days, the same main group of routes will use temporary diversion paths on both Saturday, July 18 and Sunday, July 19.
If your usual bus is on this list, it will still get you where you need to goβjust expect some temporary stop adjustments or minor route detours in the heart of the city:

Give yourself a little extra buffer time: With so much energy in the city, traffic and buses will move a bit slower than usual.
