The city has a wealth of hidden gems which are often only known about if you happen to be from our city.
We have picked a selection of our favourites to showcase in this picture galley – there are many more out there.
How many do you know?
5. Abbeydale Miniature Railway
The Abbeydale Miniature Railway, on Abbeydale Road only opens on certain days, but is a great family day out with rides on its steam trains when those open days run. Run by the Sheffield & District Society of Model & Experimental Engineers Ltd, its next open days are due on Sunday 2nd October and Sunday 16th October Photo: DEAN ATKINS
6. Sheffield speedway
Speedway racing has been going on at Owlerton Stadium, Hillsborough since the 1920s. Devotees follow the Sheffield Tigers all across the country and the sound of the engines is a familiar sound in the area on Thursday nights during the summer. Photo: Marie Caley
7. National Video Games Museum
Located in the former Co-op building near Castle Square, in the city centre, The National Videogame Museum is a trip down memory lane for the video game generation with playable arcade machines and consoles from years ago, telling the story of what is now a booming industry. And you'll not need to put 10p in the slot. Photo: Brian Eyre
8. Hallam FC, Sandygate
While Bramall Lane and Hillsborough pull in the big crowds, Sandygate, the Sandygate Road home of Hallam FC holds the distinction of being the world's oldest football ground. The club continues to play in front of home crowds in the Northern Counties East League at the ground they have occupied since 1860. Photo: Jason Chadwick
