Hide AdThe Labour, Green, Liberal Democrat and Conservative parties are all running in each of the 28 wards.
Close attention will be paid to the East Ecclesfield ward where, for the first time in years in the city, a National Front candidate is running. Jordan Pont has run unsuccessfully in previous Sheffield elections.
He will be up against David Booker (UKIP), Victoria Bowden (Lib Dem), John Mahoney (Conservative), Alex Robertson (Yorkshire Party), Brian Webster (Green) and councillor Steve Wilson (independent) who is running to be re-elected.
Coun Wilson dramatically quit Labour earlier this year after his wife Angela Smith MP left the party to form the Independent Group in Parliament.

The city is also saying goodbye to a number of councillors who are not running for re-election, including current Lord Mayor Magid Magid and leader of the Green Party Rob Murphy.
The deadline to register to vote is Friday, April 12. It takes around five minutes to register and you can do so here: www.gov.uk/register-to-vote
