Sheffield’s bar scene is set to sparkle this December as the Christmas Cocktail Festival 2025 arrives in the city, offering ten days of £5 Festive Cocktails, exclusive discounts and seasonal treats across some of Sheffield’s best-loved bars and restaurants.
Running from Friday 5th to Sunday 14th December, the city-wide festival invites guests to explore a self-guided cocktail trail, enjoying a mix of classic Christmas serves and creative new concoctions — all for just £5 each.
With over 20 venues already confirmed and more to be added, this event is set to be a great one! The 2025 line-up includes (A-Z): Bamboo Door, Curzon, Forum, Gamers Guide Café, Guyshi, Hagglers Corner, Hymn to Ninkasi, Kapital, Over the Yardarm, Pad12, Stein Haus, The Beaten Track, The Common Room, The Cross Scythes, The Four Leaf, Tiger Works, and Wildcard Bar & Grill — with more favourites still to be announced.
Each participating venue will feature a signature £5 festive cocktail, alongside optional discounts, themed serves, and festive extras exclusively available to wristband holders.
How it works
Festival-goers simply pre-order a wristband online, collect it from one of the official city-centre pick-up points, and show it at participating venues to unlock the offers. Wristbands are valid for the full 10 days, allowing guests to enjoy the city at their own pace.
“It’s about bringing Sheffield together to celebrate the season — great drinks, good company, and supporting local venues during the most social time of the year,” said Jason, Event Organiser. “We’ve had fantastic early support from both venues and the public, and we’re really excited to see it all come to life.”

Hallam Community and Youth Association are organising a Christmas Wreath Making Workshop on Sunday 14th December at 1.30pm. Liz Bishop, one of our members, will be leading the workshop. Liz is a flower demonstrator, floral designer and speaker for The Women's Institute and organised a flower arranging demonstration at one of our Coffee mornings earlier in the year, which received excellent feedback. All the materials will be provided to make an individual, unique door wreath. You are required to bring secateurs and an apron. The workshop starts at 1.30pm and lasts 2-2.5 hours. The cost to attend is £35 to include mulled wine, mince pies, tea/coffee. We can accommodate around 30 attendees in the Main Hall, so reserve early to avoid disappointment by emailing Nicola Brown [email protected]

CALM Christmas
The idea of Christmas is often sold to us as a time of joy and celebration to be spent with those we love. For many of us, and for different reasons, the reality of Christmas can sometimes feel quite different.

Maybe we've been bereaved or feel lonely, maybe we feel anxious or overwhelmed and the idea of a get-together brings anything but festive cheer. You are not alone.

Why not join us for hot chocolate and mince pies followed by a gentle evening service with a few familiar carols and a chance to reflect mindfully with some simple prayers.
4.00 pm on Sunday 14th December, at St Andrew’s Psalter Lane Church
