We asked our readers to share their views, and a number of them have told us what they thought was the best thing to happen in the city.
Some of the responses were more expected than others - and at least one was a divisive suggestion that also attracted criticism as well.
But here are some of the suggestions that we received for the best things to happen in Sheffield during 2024.
Take a look at the gallery below.
