Classical Weekend returns in 2027.
The biennial festival is one big celebration of classical music – in all manner of forms, from near and far.
It brings chamber musicians, choirs and orchestras to some of the city's finest music halls, and beyond into public spaces and more intimate and unusual venues.
TRACKS
Formed under the midnight sun in the Lofoten Islands, Norway’s leading string quartet brings the rugged soul of the country to the stage, with arrangements of traditional joiks, haunting psalms and spirited bridal marches.
With its high vaulted ceiling, large leaded windows and oak panelling, this Edwardian hall lends itself perfectly to the classical setting. Its concerts range from talented student orchestras to more experimental contemporary compositions.
Step into the beautiful Samuel Worth Chapel for an unforgettable night with Sieben – the solo project of Matt Howden, acclaimed composer, loop artist and sonic innovator.
The likes of Nirvana, Oasis, Cypress Hill, Bloc Party, Goldfrapp and Arctic Monkeys have all performed at this iconic music venue. If these eight walls could talk... Today, it hosts University of Sheffield Concerts, gigs, comedy and more.
