Photo North Festival Leeds 2023: When is the Leeds photography event and how can I buy tickets? Award winning photographers from Channel 4 set to attend giving career advice

The festival unites a display of exhibitions from top class and up and coming artists for talks, walks and workshops. There are opportunities to meet the artists, observing film screenings, book and print signings and portfolio reviews.

The Photo North is a small team of curators who have created a lively festival for people to come together and engage with artists with a wealth of experience. This year the team will be collaborating with the photography team at Channel 4 Leeds.

Channel 4 picture commissioners and editors will attend the festival’s Live Lounge for drop in portfolio reviews and will also be providing advice on career opportunities, partnerships and apprenticeships. There will be plenty to enjoy with exhibitions, talks and screenings, book/magazine/print stalls, a background of music, food and a licensed bar.
