The Friends of Leeds Lieder are the heart of the Festival.

Without their financial support – membership subscriptions, donations and Gift Aid – we simply would not be able to fill the city with song. Their ambassadorship is equally valuable, helping to spread the word about Leeds Lieder and spurring us on to even greater things.

Why not join today and access a range of benefits including priority booking, invitations to special events and advanced information? Full details and a downloadable application form are available to view below. You can also ring the Festival Office on 0113 243 4438 or email info@leedslieder.org.uk
