BBC Radio Leeds is the BBC Local Radio service for West Yorkshire. Opened in 1968, it broadcasts from its studios in Leeds on FM, AM DAB and online.
In 2004, BBC Radio Leeds became the second BBC local radio station in England, after BBC London 94.9, to broadcast 24 hours a day. Along with the BBC Yorkshire's television output, it moved, also in 2004, from the old studios on Woodhouse Lane to a new broadcasting centre in St Peter's Square, near the West Yorkshire Playhouse.
Presenters have included Peter Levy and John Hammond.
