"I've organised several conferences at the Rose Bowl over the past three years and have found it to be an excellent modern venue. The staff are exceptionally helpful and flexible in their approach to solving the problems that an organiser has and that, combined with its location in central Leeds, makes it a very good place to hold an event."

- David Connolly, Independent Labour Publications
"Our 40th Anniversary Northern Ballet Gala was a huge success. The team on the night were excellent; all the timings were completely out because the performance beforehand went on longer than expected, but they responded magnificently! The event was good value for money and I would rate the event as 10/10."

- Janet Myers, Northern Ballet
"The team’s support in helping with the organisation from start to finish was excellent and the AV technicians on the day were invaluable. The catering was also excellent - great choice of food and plenty of it!"

- Roz Clarke, NSPCC
