HOORAY! HENRY’S BACK
To celebrate the return of Henry VIII’s world-famous armours to our Leeds museum we have organised a summer of Dangerously Entertaining events, culminating in a spectacular tournament over the August Bank Holiday weekend.
Come and see Henry’s new home in the newly opened Tournament Gallery.
The next 5 events are listed below but if you know what day you are visiting why not use our events calendar below.
