The Sheffield culture guide written by in-the-know locals

DINA Winter Warmer

Free

"Twas the weekend before Christmas…
and all through the streets was hustle and bustle –
same songs on repeat...
and the bars were expensive, with nowhere to sit
and the pressure was mounting to find those last gifts…
but over at DINA on Fitzalan Square,
a place warm and cosy
with comfortable chairs...
no adverts
no football
just a nice way to spend
A Saturday afternoon,
with a mulled wine
in hand and a few DINA friends"

Join the creative folk at DINA for an afternoon escape from the bustle of the city centre at Christmas. On Saturday 17 December, their cosy venue is bringing people together over mince pies, mulled wine, music and merriment.
