Popular Leeds comedy venue The Glee Club has teamed up with some of the City’s favourite independent hospitality spots this August to give away free show tickets and encourage people to discover and support the local venues that make Leeds unique.
‘The Big Glee Giveaway’ will see 300 free tickets distributed through a selection of independent cafés, restaurants and bakeries across the City, giving customers the opportunity to enjoy a complimentary night of live comedy while supporting local hospitality businesses.
To be in with a chance of grabbing free tickets, all comedy-lovers need to do is visit participating businesses, make a purchase and simply ask for a pair of complimentary tickets. Tickets will be available on a first come first served basis. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.
The campaign has been designed to introduce new customers to both The Glee Club and some of Leeds’ thriving independent businesses, while rewarding loyal customers with a free night of entertainment.
Among the businesses taking part are Things in Bread, Ryde Studios, Rinse, Bake, Bottle Chop, Chessy Living, Little Bao Boy, House of Koko, Doh’Hut and Savvy Baker.
The Glee Club founder, Mark Tughan: “Independent businesses are at the heart of what makes Leeds such a vibrant City. We wanted to create a giveaway that not only rewards our audiences with a great night out but also shines a spotlight on the fantastic local businesses that deserve our support. By working together, we hope to introduce people to somewhere new, encourage them to shop local and create some laughter across the City throughout August.”
‘The Big Glee Giveaway’ forms part of The Glee Club’s summer comedy programme, with regular shows taking place throughout August featuring some of the UK’s best stand-up comedians.
