The academic year is over, you\u2019re free of exams and revision, and it\u2019s now time to enjoy your summer break after all the year’s hard work! Follow this guide for the great things Sheffield has to offer over the summer months.<\/p>\n

Tramlines festival<\/span>
\nTramlines is a Sheffield institution – now in its tenth year it attracts huge crowds from Sheffield and beyond. The festival has seen acts such as\u00a0Stereophonics,\u00a0Basement Jaxx and Stefflon Don, right the way through to this year\u2019s headliners Nile Rodgers\u00a0and Chic, the Courteeners and Two Door Cinema Club. Tramlines is usually held mid-July and is therefore a great way to celebrate finishing exams and kick start the summer break.<\/p>\n

Peace in the Park\u00a0<\/span>
\nAnother festival type event – Peace in the Park is held annually in Ponderosa\u00a0 park (another of Sheffield\u2019s many green spaces). The festival \"\"<\/a>has a mission to bring people together through the arts, and make a stand for global peace. The festival brings together local businesses, artists and citizens to create a celebration of the community.<\/p>\n

Bassfest<\/span>
\nBassfest is another Sheffield-based festival. The festival is held just outside of Sheffield in the Don Valley Bowl, with this year\u2019s line-up including Camelphat, Fisher,\u00a0Gorgon City and Solardo. Not quite as big as Tramlines, but nonetheless still very popular, this year\u2019s event promises over 100 acts across five stages.<\/p>\n

The Peak District\u00a0<\/span>
\nIn Sheffield we are fortunate enough to have a national park on our doorstep, which can be easily reached by train or bus. Take a\u00a0\"\"picnic and plenty of water and embark on one of the Peak’s many walks. My personal favourites are the Lady Bower Reservoir and Stanage Edge – both of which are a stone\u2019s throw away from some great pubs… the perfect summer refreshment!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Sheffield has loads to offer during the summer months. Whether it is some of the big events listed above, or just spending the day enjoying the cafes and parks in Sheffield, you\u2019ll be sure to have that well-deserved relaxing summer break you\u2019ve waited so long for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
