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.

Multiple dates

Mary St Live, 95 Mary Street, S1 4RT

The Leadmill

An iconic music venue. Since it’s early days as a punk hangout, the Leadmill has been a staple of South Yorkshire gig-goers’ diets since 1980. Sadly no longer in its original home – the team are now putting on gigs in venues across the city.

Emergence Collective

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.
