Later this month we'll be taking to the Sheffield City Hall stage with the Everly Pregnant Brothers for a special one off show 🤩

Tickets are selling like hot cakes so don't leave it too late!

The Everly Pregnant Brothers return to Sheffield City Hall for one of their most exciting hometown shows to date - and this is a big one!

Sheffield’s own ukulele mischief makers are taking over City Hall on Saturday 26th September for a one off show like you’ve never seen before. The same charm, the same energy… just with a few more instruments on stage than usual.

For this very special show and for the first time at this scale, they’ll be joined by the incredible Sheffield Philharmonic Orchestra - a 70 piece ensemble celebrating its 80th anniversary year. Under the direction of conductor George Morton, the orchestra brings a powerful new dimension to the Brothers’ much loved sound, adding real impact and scale while retaining all the character and charm you know and love.

Expect big hits, big laughs and a proper sense of occasion. A unique collaboration that promises something truly special. Don’t miss it!

Presale: Wednesday 29th April, 10am (exclusive to our mailing list)
General sale: Friday 1st May, 10am

We put our 2026-27 events on sale the other day, and we're looking forward to welcoming you to another fantastic season of live orchestral music.

For the first time in several years, we've reviewed our ticket prices. Like many organisations, our costs have increased, and these small changes will hopefully help ensure we can continue bringing high-quality, affordable concerts to Sheffield.

We've also taken the opportunity to redefine our ticket categories, and expand our discounted ticket offer for young people, with our £7 rate now available to students and anyone under 30.

Sheffield Philharmonic Orchestra is a registered charity. Every ticket purchased - and every optional donation - helps us continue making live orchestral music accessible to our community.

🎼 Summer Showcase | Mendelssohn: Overture in C for Wind Instruments

We'll close our Summer Showcase concert with a work that demonstrates the astonishing talents of a teenage Felix Mendelssohn, who wrote the piece when he was just 15 years old.

The original score was lost but recopied by Mendelssohn in July of 1826. Entitled Nocturno, it written for the instrumentation of one flute, two clarinets, two oboes, two bassoons, two horns, one trumpet, and one English bass horn (a conical bore upright serpent in the shape of a bassoon).

Rarely performed today, this youthful masterpiece provides a fitting conclusion to an afternoon celebrating the talents of our members.
