Leicester, a city in the East Midlands, was named the UK's top spot for nightlife spending, beating the likes of London, Liverpool, Birmingham, and Manchester to the crown.

And it's easy to see why punters are parting with their cash at nightclubs and pubs in Leicester.

Mosh is a three-storey nightclub house inside a Gaudi-inspired building in the city, and it sells drinks for just £1 on student nights.

Meanwhile, in Club Republic drinks cost £2.50 on select student nights. There's also Fanclub, which has been open since 1985, and is well-known for its retro-themed club events.

In addition to the pubs and clubs, there are plenty of other attractions in Leicester for tourists, including the National Space Centre.

There's also Leicester Cathedral where the remains of King Richard III can be found - after they were excavated from a car park in the city in 2012.

Other attractions include the King Richard III Visitors Centre, and the King Power Stadium - home to former Premier League winners Leicester City.
