True North Brew Co. to host outdoor fan zones across Sheffield for the World Cup

Back of the net!

Clementine Hall - 22nd May 2026

Football isn't just coming home, it's coming to True North Brew Co.

It's almost time to get your very best England merch on and get cheering on the lads in the 2026 World Cup.

Luckily for us, True North Brew Co. will be providing the ultimate scenes with a number of fan zones across the city.

The hospitality group will be transforming a number of their bars and venues into football viewing hotspots throughout the tournament.

The Abbeydale Ballroom will be on of the city's largest outdoor fan zones, showing every England fixture across multiple screens so no one misses out on the action.

Not only that, but The Ballroom's car park will be converted into a large-scale viewing area featuring a huge LED screen for fans to watch matches together.

Elsewhere, The British Oak in Mosborough will be hosting its very own outdoor screening zone with a brand-new LED screen.

Also getting in on the action is The Common Room, Forum, The Old Grindstone, Riverside and The Broadfield - it's safe to say True North have got us covered.

A spokesperson for True North Brew Co said: “There’s nothing quite like tournament football in Sheffield. Whether you’re watching in one of our fan zones, booking your own private viewing area, or joining hundreds of other fans for the big England games, we want our venues to be the best places in the city to experience the World Cup together.

“The atmosphere is going to be incredible and hopefully we’ll all be celebrating deep into the tournament.”

Clementine Hall

Lucy & Yak is turning its Sheffield store into a dedicated PreLoved hub for the entire weekend.

If you're all about celebrating second-hand shopping, then this is the event for you.

Since 2023, Lucy & Yak has kept a more than 42,000 Yaks in circulation through its incredible PreLoved scheme.

The concept is simple, customers bring in and return their old Yaks, and once processed receive a money-off voucher to put towards their next purchase. So everyone's a winner, basically.

And don't worry if your old pieces are damaged, as these are lovingly repaired or upcycled by their talented Re:Yak Studio team in Yorkshire before being sold on in-store to find their new homes.

This bank holiday weekend, from Saturday 23 to Monday 25 May, the entire Sheffield store will be transformed with a huge PreLoved section for you to browse.

The special event is the latest milestone in Lucy & Yak’s broader commitment to circularity, which also includes its (Im)Perfect sales, a Facebook Marketplace for buying, selling and swapping, and Re:Yak workshops held throughout the year - community sessions that help people mend and customise their clothing.

Lydia Coley, Managing Director at Lucy & Yak said: “We’re so excited to bring the PreLoved Weekender to our stores this May. Lucy & Yak has always been built around community, creativity and doing things a little differently, and PreLoved brings all of that together.

"We're incredibly proud of keeping over 42,000 Yaks in circulation. Every second-hand Yak has a story, and this weekend is about helping those pieces find their next home in a fun way”

So if you're looking for a fresh new colourful wardrobe for the summer, get yourself to Lucy & Yak this weekend to shop smart.

A daytime rave where you can be in bed by 8pm is coming to Sheffield

Clementine Hall

The famous Day Fever is back and this time it’s set to be bigger and better than ever before.

If you haven’t heard of Day Fever before, then we are about to blow your mind.

Launched in early 2024 by actress Vicky McClure and frontman of Reverend & The Makers Jon McClure, Day Fever has become somewhat of a cultural sensation.

From its debut her in Sheffield to a tour that sees thousands of ravers hitting the dance floor each month, the message is clear: people want to dance and let loose, but still be in bed before 9pm. And to be honest, we don’t blame them.

Running from 3pm to 8pm, Day Fever provides a proper night out that doesn’t completely write you off for the entire weekend.

Heading to Sheffield City Hall on Saturday 6th June, this edition of Day Fever will be filled with nothing but wall-to-wall hits courtesy of DJs Stars & Stace, Olly Hayes and Christian Carlisle.

"If you look back at the first Sheffield one to what we are now, the evolution of it is amazing," says Vicky McClure. "It was still the same people that wanted the same thing; they just wanted to go out in the day… and just have a dance!"

Think less nightclub, more joyful chaos. “It feels like a massive house party at your nan’s,” Vicky laughs. “No drama, no egos, just people acting daft, getting dressed up, and having the best time."

"It’s stories that we hear that really sum up what it's about," says Vicky McClure. "We’ve had people going through chemotherapy… people grieving… and all of a sudden you just feel this room filled with love."
