Leicester is a fantastic city with excellent transport links, spectacular shopping, world class arts & culture, and an ever-growing housing offer

Leicester is a unique city and a wonderful place to live and work, with a superb range of visitor attractions and shopping that is second to none. It's a city that combines the finest English traditions with multicultural activities and the cosmopolitan buzz of city life.

Our city is bursting with state-of-the-art, award-winning venues including Curve, Highcross Leicester and the National Space Centre, a fantastic calendar of events and festivals, renowned museums and galleries, a range of live music venues, areas of natural beauty and 2,000 years of heritage to discover.

Renowned for our sporting prowess, the city’s clubs and sporting personalities have won more than 20 championship titles between them over the past decade. Leicester City created history when they lifted the Premier League trophy against odds of 5,000 to 1, and more recently when they raised the iconic FA Cup for the first time, under the Wembley arch.

The popular Golden Mile is a vibrant marketplace for Indian food, spices, fashion and jewellery. The area is a shining example of Leicester’s cultural diversity and its world-famous Diwali celebrations are the largest outside India.
