Abbeydale Live returned to Sheffield for its second year this weekend with dozens of pubs, bars and cafes throwing a party.
The homegrown music festival is spread out across more than 24 businesses and venues up and down Abbeydale Road, with stages, special deals and beer gardens buzzing energy.
Well over 100 acts and musicians will perform across the weekend, with more fun to come on Sunday (April 19).
Last year’s event lasted one day and brought about a huge surge in footfall, with a number of businesses reporting one of their busiest days of the year. However, this year’s shindig is twice as long and even today proved to be a magnet for footfall up and down the street.
The Star was out on Saturday for family photos and pictures of friends soaking up the sun. See if anyone you know is in our gallery below.
