Need a Venue?

All Hallows/Rainbow Junktion in Headingley

We have a couple of spaces that we would love to use more. Our large hall holds about 100 people and the smaller chapel is suitable for approximately 18 people. 

The hall has wonderful acoustics due to its wooden ceiling and also has a sound desk and microphones. We have plenty of tables and chairs and a kitchen with lots of equipment.  

We are all on one level, with double doors and a disabled toilet.

There is parking on site for around 10 cars and no restrictions on the road outside. A note of caution with regard to Friday bookings: There is a very large mosque very close and parking on the street is not easy.

We have a price list, but we can also offer a bursary to help get your group up and running and will try and fit around any budget restrictions.

Here is a link to our calendar if you wish to find out what days might be available What's On — All Hallows Leeds
