One of Sheffield's most iconic venues is closing its doors for good.
We're not going to lie you guys, this one hurts a little.
One on the city's best-known nightclubs, Tank, is officially closing its doors for good after an amazing 12 years.
Whether you went there as a student or attended one of their legendary DJ nights, there's no denying that some class memories have been made (and probably forgotten) at Tank.
Announcing the news to social media with a heartbreaking statement, Tank said: "To all our Tank ravers. We have some truly heartbreaking and devastating news.
"After 12 absolutely amazing years and some of the most unforgettable events, it's time to close our doors for good. It's been a journey we never imagined possible back in 2014 when we first opened.
"We’ve hosted some of the biggest names from around the world and thrown some of the biggest parties most clubs could only dream of. And we did it for 12 years solid; an achievement not to be taken lightly in today’s nightlife industry."
"But with ever-growing costs and obstacles, we can continue no longer. Tank has always been a pioneer. The biggest acts, the best sound, cutting-edge lighting, unbeatable atmosphere and vibe, all whilst maintaining affordable ticket and drink prices.
"But in today’s climate, those standards simply cannot be maintained. With monthly running costs spiralling, it has become impossible to carry on."
The post continues thanking the team and declares it will be no more as of next week. We're not crying, you are.
If you're looking to wish Tank a proper farewell, they'll be hosting their last ever party this Saturday with tickets on sale now. Grab one to give Tank the proper sendoff it deserves.
A beloved Sheffield independent is expanding, and this time in the leafy suburb of Broomhill.
Just when you thought Sheffield's matcha scene couldn't get any better...MADE announces that they're opening a third site.
And judging by what they've teased over on their social media, this looks like it's set to be their best one yet.
Since launching last year, MADE has built a loyal following thanks to its aesthetic drinks, inventive flavours and a menu that goes far beyond your standard coffee shop offering.

This pastel-toned, checker-floored, light-filled space first popped up on Ecclesall Road and was nothing short of a roaring success.
So much so, that they expanded across Yorkshire to open in Leeds on bustling Lower Briggate.
At its core, MADE specialises in hand-whisked matcha, with a rotating lineup of seasonal specials that are as photogenic as they are drinkable. Think strawberry shortcake matcha, sticky date lattes, and the much-hyped banana bread matcha that’s gained a cult following across both cities.
Alongside that, you’ll find iced coffees, 'split cups' for indecisive sippers, and smoothies inspired by the cult-favourite Erewhon.
MADE is also serving up generous açaí bowls, fresh sandwiches (including their popular tuna-cado option), salads which you can shake like a Kardiashian, and other grab-and-go bites.
Britpop legends Pulp to be inducted into Sheffield’s Walk of Fame this Friday
Clementine Hall
Sheffield music royalty Pulp are getting their very own star on the Sheffield Walk of Fame.
I mean...it's about time, isn't it?
The Britpop favourites fronted by icon Jarvis Cocker will be officially inducted into the Sheffield Legends Walk of Fame outside Sheffield Town Hall this Friday 30 October, with the unveiling scheduled for 2pm.
And don't fret, because anyone can head down to watch the occasion and show their support for the beloved band.
Not just that, but the band will be taking charge of a beloved local boozer and grassroots gig venue The Hallamshire Hotel on the same evening.
The news was announced on 9 October by Rough Trade Records, along with Pulp themselves.
Their pop-up pub in Manchester in August featured a jukebox programmed by Jarvis Cocker himself, along with merch literally plastered on every wall and even the ceilings.
The previous Pulp pop-up pub had loads of merch for sale, from tees and totes to records and stickers.
The walls were turned into a shrine for the band, showcasing posters and photography from throughout their illustrious career.
And the crowds came through in a big way, queueing halfway down the street for a chance to be totally immersed in all things Pulp.
This pop-up will have a Pulp quiz, pop-up shop, fancy dress competition and even Pulp karaoke...sign us up.
So this Friday, 30 October, you can head down to support Pulp and the unveiling of their coveted star before heading to The Hallamshire Hotel all for their very own pop-up pub experience for a couple pints or two.
