So if you’re planning a night out with mates and are stuck for places to go or your pub session has ended up in everyone wanting to hit the dance-floor, we’ve got the perfect round up of nights for you. By day of the week, these are the best student nights in Leeds.

MONDAY

Where? Fxck Mondays at Fibre

Kick off your week and get rid of those Monday blues in style at Fibre bar! House music will be playing all evening for you to party to, and the student discounts are incredible.

TUESDAY

Where? Popped Tuesdays at Popworld 

Do you like the sound of free entry to Popworld? So do I! On Tuesdays, you can get free entry to Popworld if you plan ahead. Most tickets are free, but the final fifty are priced at £3.00 – still pretty reasonable in my opinion! They also offer themed nights on Tuesdays, like Taylor Swift and One Direction, so get ready to let your hair down and try not to think about the 9 am lecture waiting for you in the morning.

Address: Popworld, 43 Cookridge Street, Leeds, LS2 3AW

Cost of entry: free or £3 for the final 50 tickets

WEDNESDAY

Where? Mischief Wednesdays at the Warehouse

Like many university cities, Wednesday nights often mean sports societies out on the town in whatever hilarious costume their social secs dreamt up for that week. Get a piece of the action at the Warehouse, where entry starts at £5 on a Wednesday. Enjoy club classics (Charli XCX pun not intended) and throwback bangers in the main room or head upstairs to the Loft for the hip-hop and R&B playlist of your dreams!

Address: The Warehouse, 19-21 Somers St, Leeds, LS1 2RG

Cost of entry: £5

THURSDAY

Where? SKINT at Space

I know the best part of a night out is often the pre-drinks, but here’s a club night where you’ll actually want to get there early! As the name suggests, even when you’re skint you can still enjoy yourself at SKINT Thursdays! Entry and drinks are all £2 before midnight, so it’s affordable even when the student loan has run dry. SKINT Thursdays is also perfect for the House and R&B lovers, as the soundtrack is mashups of the two all night long!

Address: Space, 11A Hirst’s Yard, Leeds, LS1 6NJ

Cost of entry: £2

Room one features more rock-pop, including classics like My Chemical Romance, Panic! At the Disco and Fall Out Boy, while room two features classic rock and metal like Metallica and Rage Against the Machine.
