Northern Ballet is a purpose-built, six-storey facility located on Quarry Hill in central Leeds in the thriving cultural quarter.
We share our home with Phoenix Dance Theatre, Northern Ballet Academy and students from Leeds Beckett University's performing arts courses. It is a vibrant and exciting venue with lots going on including dance classes for everyone in our 7 large dance studios, performances in the 230-seat Stanley & Audrey Burton Theatre and exhibitions in our atrium. We have a number of spaces available for hire for rehearsals, meetings and conferences as well as delicious food and drink served in the Northern Ballet café bar.
