What's On

Sheffield has a fantastic programme of vibrant events and festivals all year round, from international sporting fixtures and summer music festivals to world-renowned theatre and exhibitions.

The capital of modern manufacturing

The Advanced Manufacturing Innovation District (AMID) spans the border of Sheffield and neighbouring town of Rotherham, and was the first of it's kind in the UK. This 2,000 acre, already decade-old cluster of inventiveness, alongside the world-leading heavy industry and engineering expertise still present in the city, inspires and powers the future of a £200 billion sector in the UK alone.

Help for local businesses

We know businesses of any kind need help, and Business Sheffield have the experience to do just that. We have done so for 30 years, helping approximately 3,500 businesses in one way or another, to an approximate value of £3bn to the local economy.
