Hit Sheffield city centre reindeer trail for festive family fun
The Christmas trail, created by Sheffield BID (Business Improvement District), sees the return of Brearley Bear for a new adventure, Brearley’s Reindeer Roundup.
The trail encourages families to solve clues together as they experience and explore several corners of the city centre in search of Santa’s Reindeer, who have broken free.

Sheffield BID has also been instrumental in bringing two huge festive light installations to the city centre, which are set to be unveiled as part of the Christmas lights switch-on event on Sunday (Nov 17).
A five-metre-tall Santa Claus will appear on Barker’s Pool, while a three-metre Brearley Bear will be calling The Moor home for the second year running.
Both light installations will form key landmarks along Brearley’s Reindeer Roundup trail, which will be starting on November 23 and run to Christmas Eve.
