Founded in 2015, Festival of Debate is an annual series of panel discussions, debates, Q&As, artistic responses and other public events in Sheffield, exploring politics, economics and society. It’s coordinated in collaboration with partners across the city, from grassroots campaign groups to community groups to cultural institutions.

Classical Weekend returns in 2027. The biennial festival is one big celebration of classical music – in all manner of forms, in all kinds of places.
