Festivals

Evolution of electronic music

The cultural impact of electronic music is closely tied to Sheffield, whose late‑70s and early‑80s pioneers helped shape the genre as we know it. Today, the city’s artists, producers, performers and festivals continue to lead the way, pushing boundaries, shaping the industry and introducing audiences to new sounds and unforgettable experiences.
