Worrall Festival and Gala // 30 June – 1 July
The picturesque village of Worrall, on the edge of the city, is hosting the 9th Worrall Festival & Gala. With a line-up featuring some of Sheffield’s best up-and-coming bands, alongside well-known local favourites, the festival and gala also provides entertainment for children such as crafts, music workshops and much more. A bar will feature a selection of locally brewed ales and ciders.
Green Day // 2 July // Tickets from £43.00
If you want to go ahead and make your weekend a three day binge, get yourself down t’arena and see Green Day. The band may be in there 31st year, but they still play with all the same energy and bluster as they always have.
