Leicester City Centre stalked by globes

By Kira Gibson

Big globes have shown up all over Leicester City Centre, spread from De Montfort University Magazine Square to the Richard III Museum and the Clock Tower. 

As part of the summer festivities that Leicester City Council puts on every year, the globes are part of a trail across Leicester to find out more about cultures. 

Last year, the city was covered in rockets, which people were able to bid upon and buy after the trail had ended and the time to complete it was up. 

The globes come with a QR code on the base, which when you scan it, will take you to https://jod.theworldreimagined.org/trails/LEICESTER/LEICESTER/5 to mark off a globe on the trail. 

From this website, you can see where in Leicester the globes are and what the main trail is.
