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
No musician has as deep a connection to Sheffield as Richard Hawley. Here he talks about the "grim up north" myth and how Sheffield inspires his music.
Sheffield’s biggest beer hall is swapping oompah for big-band this Tramlines. From crooner classics, brass-based reworkings of modern anthems or a laid-back Sunday afternoon by the piano, The Big Band Weekender offers something a little different.
Kicking things off on Thursday is Index For Working Musik's inventive post-punk. Friday will be headlined by hardcore punks Sniffany & The Nits, while Saturday will be landlord-haters Holiday Ghosts. Expect the party to continue into the early hours.
