The Castlegate Festival 2026 programme has been announced, including workshops and radio from Sheffield Live!
The tenth edition of the Castlegate Festival celebrates local organisations and institutions within the Castlegate area of Sheffield between September 12th and 20th 2026.
The festival is a celebration of heritage as well as the rich arts, music and market scene, featuring food, music and workshops from a variety of community organisations including Sheffield Live!
On the 19th and 20th of September, Sheffield Live! Is bringing a dedicated radio station, Castlegate Festival Radio to the festival from our new home, 42 Waingate. Attendees of the festival can come along to see the building and contribute their stories as the radio broadcasts across the weekend plus listen to live music and chat from our team on DAB and online.
Also in 42 Waingate, the old Tap and Barrel pub, Sheffield Live! Will be hosting a “Future Memories” exhibition, highlighting the history of the building whilst sharing personal stories and memories of those in the community. During this event, creative workshops will be held on the past, present and future of the Castlegate area and the former pub itself.
