With only 94 days until Christmas (as of writing), and the subsequent quiet time around that area, it’s not that long until 2025 bids us adieu and we welcome 2026 - full of hopes, promises... and a fair few gigs already announced in Sheffield so far.
Rather than rest on any laurels, promoters in the city and nationwide have already announced some stunning events coming to Sheffield in 2026; be it the return of the Rock & Roll Circus at Don Valley Bowl in September, through the Florence + The Machine, YES and local heroes Def Leppard all with dates scheduled in the new year, and plenty more already on the event calendar.
We’ve taken a look through Ticketmaster, Skiddle, BandsinTown and more to bring to you 19 huge concerts coming to venues such as the Utilita Arena, Octagon and Sheffield City Hall that are simply unmissable this early out from 2026 - and with more to come in the upcoming months, it might pay to start saving a date for a couple of these gigs!
