Yorkshire is in the blood for presenter, writer, podcaster and former international gymnast Gabby Logan MBE who will chair the spectacular Awakening…
Gabby Logan spent her teenage years in Leeds when her footballer dad Terry Yorath was a manager with Bradford City.
My teenage years being spent in Leeds was a really grounding experience after having moved around a lot. Being in Leeds gave me a sense of belonging for the first time – I was born there but when we came back, I felt like ‘I belong’. Leeds felt like it was big enough to feel like you were somewhere exciting but small enough that there’d always be someone in town that you knew and would bump into; that nice familiarity but exciting when you’re a young person.
‘The Awakening’ will celebrate Leeds’ past, present and future in a live show from the home of Leeds Rhinos. With 15,000 tickets available Leeds people are being asked to get creative and submit a piece of art to be in with a chance of gaining a pair of free tickets to the one-off show.
