Stage Hands and Event Crew in Sheffield

Sheffield is known for its sporting and music venues, including the Utilita Arena, Sheffield City Hall and the Crucible Theatre, home of the World Snooker Championship each spring. Its location beside the Peak District supports outdoor festivals and events, and Don Valley and Hillsborough add sport. The city hosts the Doc/Fest documentary festival and Tramlines music festival. Sheffield's industrial heritage means converted works and warehouse spaces are used for events, product launches and private parties. Its position near Leeds, Manchester and the East Midlands makes it a handy base for crews supporting regional shows and corporate events.
