Opening its doors for the first time on the 16th of September, FORGE will be transporting Sheffield’s music-lovers to paradise with a huge program full of music and arts events. 

Aiming to unite Sheffield’s dancers and propel the city’s nightlife to new heights, the site, located just outside the city centre, has various spaces for party people to enjoy. Overlooking the Tinsley Canal, The Yard will host outdoor events, while The Workroom will see Sheffield’s rising stars perform in an intimate setting. Finally, FØRGE will be the main area for bigger artists and events.

While FORGE's music offering will be incredibly diverse, expect drum and bass, techno, and house artists to have plenty of time in the limelight. But when these genres aren’t front stage, other electronic genres, live bands, and arts events will be taking over the venue.

To create a truly unforgettable experience, the venue has worked alongside Pioneer Audio to install a sound system that’ll turn your legs to jelly. And no club setting could be complete without lighting to emphasise drops and take you to another world, so the venue has been mapped with a unique LED system so you can experience every note to the fullest. 

Offering a safe and inclusive space for people to come together to enjoy music, we can’t wait to get down to FORGE to check out some of the biggest names in the game. And to feel those bass notes rattle through our bones!
