Leeds 2023: ‘Truly special’ mystery City Square installation to be next major project for year of culture
Leeds 2023 Head of Development Sofi Lundgren told the Leeds Chamber of Commerce dinner about the next key project for the year of culture, following last month’s opening ceremony called The Awakening.
It will be based at City Square, which has been the subject of months of ongoing roadworks as part of council plans to make the location “people-first” by removing general through-traffic.

Hide AdMs Lundgren said: “Our next big moment is a project called Making A Stand. What we are doing is a major installation opening in a couple of months time which will be taking over that whole square.


"I’m trying to describe it without giving it away because it needs to be a bit of a secret as well. But it is a really striking arrival into Leeds when you come out of the railway station – it is something truly special.”
