WHERE EVENTS TAKE FLIGHT

Live Music in Sheffield

FolkAir is listing 86 live music gigs in Sheffield over the next three months, across 6 venues including Sidney and Matilda, Hallamshire Hotel and Yellow Arch Studios. Next up is Violent Magic Orchestra at Sidney and Matilda on Wed 19 Aug at 7:30pm. 5 of them fall this weekend. 1 of them is free to get into. Every date, venue and price comes straight from venue and promoter listings and is refreshed daily, so this is what is genuinely on sale right now rather than a fixed editorial round-up. Below the gig table you will also find 21 live music venues in and around Sheffield, each with its own page covering where it is, when it opens and what is on there next. Every row links through to that gig's own page for the full details and, where the promoter published one, a ticket link.
