A change of scenery

Sheffield is ranked as the best UK city in which to start a business, the UK's greenest city, Europe's second best city break, and the UK's foodie hotspot... so it's worth making any excuse to come for a city break! Whether you're a speaker or a delegate at a conference here, own your own business and want to locate somewhere with the amazing access to talent we have from two world-class Universities, or Sheffield is en-route or close by another business location - make sure you pay us a visit…

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.

Street Art

There are a number of street artists who live in Sheffield and make our walls into something beautiful for the city to be proud of. Their variety of styles can be seen here, as well as all over the world - and we have plenty of guest murals painted by artists who have visited Sheffield to create their own mark too.
