Sheffield Culture Hub is “keeping culture open online and helping the arts community stay strong in Sheffield” after venues the city were forced to temporary close. The hospitality industry is not expected to begin reopening until 1 July at the earliest, Boris Johnson announced on Sunday (10 May).
People can see what events are still going ahead courtesy of venues determined to ensure punters get their film, music or theatre fix.
