Leeds Digital Festival is an open, collaborative celebration of digital culture in all its forms.
This year, Leeds Digital Festival (LDF) is celebrating its 10th anniversary. Since it began in 2016 with just 56 events, it has grown into the largest open-platform tech event in the North and one of the UK’s longest-running festivals outside London Tech Week. Over the years, it has become a showcase for digital culture, innovation and collaboration across Leeds and beyond.
This year’s festival runs from 22 September to 3 October and features more than 230 events covering themes such as AI, cybersecurity, FinTech, digital creativity, inclusivity and healthcare technology. Most events are free to attend, reflecting the open and inclusive nature of the festival.
As part of the LDF, Audacia is hosting Tech Talks Live on Wednesday 1 October at Wellington Place in Leeds. This live event brings together leaders from across industries to share experiences on topics across engineering, data and AI.
