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

Sheffield's first poet laureate. A radical performer with a clear vision of poetry and rap as a means of communicating emotion.
A hang-out built around good beer, great music and community spirit. Hosting the weekly Kelham Island Film Club, a regular open jazz night, an eclectic mix of gigs and the occasional art exhibition.
A quietly radical musical force based entirely around improvisation. Ahead of their album launch, they reflect on the ideas that bond their roughly 40 musicians, and how Sheffield has inspired them along the way.
