Curzon Sheffield will sadly be closing its cinema at the end of the month.
Cinephiles, this one might hurt.
The much loved Curzon cinema on George Street, known for its eclectic film programme, comfortable atmosphere and great food and drink, has announced they are closing.
Announcing the news to Instagram, Curzon Sheffield said: "We are deeply saddened to inform you that we will be permanently closing Curzon Sheffield on 29 June 2026.
"The admissions have fallen below the level required to remain profitable, and therefore the company has made the difficult decision to close the cinema.
"On behalf of the entire Curzon Sheffield team, we’d like to thank our employees past and present for their dedicated service.
"Above all, we’re so grateful to you, our visitors, for all your support over the years. You made Curzon Sheffield such a vibrant, welcoming community. It has been a privilege to share great cinema with you."
Curzon's journey in the cinema industry dates all the way back to 1934, and since then they've opened sixteen venues across the UK which are designed and furnished individually and equipped with superior cinema technology.
In 2015, Curzon Cinemas became the first independent cinema group in the UK to pay the Living Wage and just a couple years later in 2017, the Curzon group received the prestigious award for Outstanding British Contribution to Cinema at the British Academy Film Awards.
So it's safe to say it's a real shame that Curzon Sheffield will no longer be in our city centre, but you've still got until Monday 29 June to visit and catch a flick.
Thieves have broken into a beloved Sheffield bar and restaurant and caused expensive damage - just to make off with some joints of beef.
Kapital, a huge European beer hall that opened in the city centre last year, said that the vandals in question stole four beef joints that were meant to be for their Father's Day service.
Sharing the news with followers, the business wrote: "Now, we know our Sunday roasts are really good…
"But smashing a massive window and crawling through it at 5am? We’re flattered, but come on FFS."
Kapital has shared photos of the damage inflicted in the incident, showing a joint of beef lying on a bed of broken glass.
The break-in happened overnight on Thursday, with staff arriving on Friday to find that the huge window had been smashed in.
The joints of beef stolen had been bought in especially for a fully-booked Father's Day service this weekend.
Kapital said: "It’s not even the beef we’re most bothered about. It’s the smashed window. The repairs. The clean-up. The hassle. We’ve spent all week grafting to get ready for Father’s Day and now we’re dealing with this instead…
"A tough one to swallow for any independent business, ahead of one of the busiest days of the year."

In their full statement, they wrote: "Someone stole our beef. Woke up this morning to find someone had smashed their way into Kapital overnight and helped themselves to four joints of beef we’d bought in for our fully booked Father’s Day service
"Now, we know our Sunday roasts are really good… But smashing a massive window and crawling through it at 5am? We’re flattered, but come on FFS.
"Maybe a disgruntled Dad who couldn’t get a table for Father’s Day. Maybe not. We’ll probably never know.
"It’s not even the beef we’re most bothered about.
"It’s the smashed window. The repairs. The clean-up. The hassle. We’ve spent all week grafting to get ready for Father’s Day and now we’re dealing with this instead… A tough one to swallow for any independent business, ahead of one of the busiest days of the year.
"Anyway, we’re open as normal today. Just with a slightly more boarded-up aesthetic than usual.
"And if you’re joining us for Father’s Day on Sunday, don’t stress. Replacement joints are en-route and every booking will be looked after exactly as planned .
Five of the BEST places in Sheffield to watch the World Cup
Thomas Melia
Whether it's coming home or not, we've rounded up five of the best pubs, bars and cultural hubs in our home for you to watch the World Cup.
After getting eliminated in the quarter-final four years ago at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, the England team are back with a vengeance as they gear up for the 2026 World Cup across USA, Canada and Mexico.
Just like every football tournament, there's always high hopes for our lads, and rightly so as this team has won once, placed fourth twice and reached the quarter-final stage a whopping 7 times.
This time round, the football frenzy is kicking off right in the middle of the British Summertime, and weather-depending we'll be enjoying a crisp pint or two with the sun beaming on us.
Failing that, we're sure there's plenty of indoor room at these five Sheffield spots where we can comfortably watch the match, and maybe grab a bite to eat too.
Where are some of the best places to watch the World Cup in Sheffield?
Riverside

Self-appointed 'Friendly local pub' Riverside is located in Kelham Island and is hosting matches throughout the pub and to ensure everyone gets a good seat, they're showing England games in their function room and courtyard too.
It's no surprise that this notable South Yorkshire watering hole is screening as many football games as they can, as it's recognised for hosting all sorts of activites including a Cowgirls and Cocktails night recently with painting, limbo and drinks.
Known for its iconic neon sign which adorns the side wall of the pub that overlooks its accompanying beer garden, this Sheffield pub is encouraging footy lovers to make bookings to avoid disappointment, although walk-ins where possible will be welcomed.
Cambridge Street Collective

If you didn't know already, Cambridge Street Collective is Europe's largest purpose-built food hall with a variety of bars and some seriously tasty scran being served up by 20 diverse kitchens.
In case that wasn't enough to tempt you, it's launching some deals just in time for this football celebration with £10 entry securing you a nice seat and a pint valued up to £7.
There's even £5 Pravha an hour before England match kick-offs, live DJs to give the space a more fan zone-esque feel as well as a retro footy shirt pop-up on Sunday 14 June from 12pm to 4.30pm.
Kapital

This 'promised land of European drinking and dining' is obviously getting involved in all the World Cup action with free entry and no bookings required.
This booze-filled institution is even giving away free pints of Paulaner for you to enjoy during England's first match against Croatia through the link in their bio.
After a beer? There's definitely no short supply as you can grab a one litre stein. Prefer a cocktail? You're in luck as this Sheffield pub is pouring frozen margs too.
Also joining in on the generosity with a giveaway is Neepsend Social, who are offering a free pint for you and a mate during any of the upcoming World Cup matches.
Although not much is listed about their plans for the World Cup, considering this social club is always running a variety of events, it's more than likely they're getting involved in showing the footy.
This venue is walk-in only and dog friendly, meaning you really can bring everyone you know including your friend's nan's dog - pawfect.
BOX Sheffield

This designated sports bar is obviously making the most of the World Cup celebrations, even hosting an orchestra take-over at their London Piccadilly location playing iconic anthems.
All their sites across the UK are getting booked up fast, so if you're after watching England with a few pals here, it's better to get this booked sooner rather than later.
Not in the mood for football but still up for a party? Their Sheffield location has a couple of karaoke pods available to hire too - We're sure 'Three Lions' will be on the playlist regardless.
