Sheffield retro: 23 nostalgic photos to bring back memories of growing up in the 1990s

This retro photo gallery shows children across Sheffield during the 1990s.

Youngsters are seen preparing for the popular Sheffield Children’s Festival, rehearsing for the Young World Concert at Sheffield Arena, and visiting the short-lived Sheffield City Airport.

Children are also shown at schools and parks around Sheffield, celebrating Christmas and Chinese New Year, raising money for good causes, and marking a special anniversary for the city.

A Sheffield United star and a boxing great feature alongside the youngsters in this trip down memory lane.
