Ice cream vans in Leeds

A live link takes the guesswork out, for you and for them.

Where ice cream vans trade in Leeds

Vans work a mix of estates, event days and busy open spaces. These are some well-known places in and around Leeds where people gather in warm weather. Whether you can trade at any of them is a matter for the relevant council or landowner, so always check first.

• Roundhay Park. One of the biggest city parks in Europe, with lakes and open lawns.
• Temple Newsam. A large estate and park on the east side of the city.
• Woodhouse Moor. A central open space close to the universities.
• Golden Acre Park. A popular park on the north side of Leeds.

Many Leeds rounds run into the surrounding towns and villages. A single permanent link means the people you meet on the edges of your round can follow you as easily as those in the centre.

How RouteServe helps customers find your van

Open RouteServe on your phone and tap start when you head out. Customers scan the QR code on your van or open your permanent link and see where you are now on a live map. They do not need an app or an account. When you tap pause or end, your public map disappears completely, so nobody sees where you park up. Your link and QR code never change, so you can print them once. See the how it works page for the full picture, or read our guide on QR codes on your van.
