Photos from Off the Shelf 2022
Autumn in Sheffield is pretty much synonymous with literary delights, as Off the Shelf Festival of Words hosts a programme packed with talks and readings from world renowned authors and poets, famous folk off the telly, and a few knowledgable locals.
Each year, the festival absorbs audiences in topics ranging from pop music to politics, fine art to feminism.
Look out for our top picks from the 2025 Off the Shelf programme in the coming months.
A bookshop with a focus on children’s books, sharing the power of stories and different voices within the Hillsborough community.
