A brain city to discover: Presenter Alex Zane on Leeds as the ultimate setting for Trivial Pursuit takeover
Leeds-born presenter and podcaster Alex Zane is supporting a city-wide Trivial Pursuit trail organized by LeedsBID in partnership with Hasbro. The interactive game uses six category-themed cheese stations across landmarks including Trinity Leeds, the Merrion Centre, Victoria Gate, the Royal Armouries, the Corn Exchange and Wellington Place, with the final challenge at Leeds City Museum. Zane helped curate the music category and argues that the trail encourages residents to rediscover Leeds's history, cultural venues and overlooked landmarks. The event commemorates 400 years since Leeds received its royal charter and runs until August 30.
