An Afternoon of ROCK is returning to Leeds to bring you another daytime rock and metal party to all you over 30s
After sold out Leeds launch in February and further sold out events in London, Sheffield, Manchester and more, we're coming to The Backroom with a mix of well known rock, glam metal, pop-punk, grunge and nu-metal hits from across the decades so they'll be something for everyone. Come and rock out or just come and meet like-minded rockers your age.
The party will finish at 7pm so there'll be time to hit the local bars for one more Jager or you could just go home and rock out from there!
