The new Carnegie Pavilion is the result of a unique partnership between Leeds Metropolitan University and Yorkshire County Cricket Club that has delivered a dual-use building – the ultimate in coalition design for the credit crunch era. During the academic year, the Carnegie Pavilion will operate mainly as a university teaching faculty and, during the summer holidays, mainly as a world-class Media & Hospitality facility for the cricket club.
