Watch the 2019 highlights video below:
Tramlines 2021 takes place after the first ever sell out event in 2019 and an unplanned hiatus in 2020. Since humble beginnings in 2009 when Tramlines launched as a free, multi-venue, inner-city festival, Tramlines is now a firm fixture on the UK festival circuit receiving many accolades including the UK Festival Award for Best Metropolitan Festival in 2019 and 2011. In keeping with the last two events, Tramlines Festival 2021 takes place in one greenfield site, Hillsborough Park, just a few miles North West of Sheffield City Centre and will feature five stages of music, comedy, performance, art, and handpicked food and craft ales.
As ever, Tramlines welcomes a slew of talent from across its home city and the Yorkshire regions. The ever popular four-piece The Sherlocks join the bill whose impressive credits include being the first unsigned band after the Arctic Monkeys to sell out the legendary independent venue, the Leadmill. The ever-cherished singer and songwriter Lucy Spraggan who’ll deliver her folk pop signature style as seen on album number five released in 2019 and on her recent quirky cover of The Proclaimers ‘500 Miles’. This comes alongside the heavy, fast-paced indie sounds of The Reytons, the loud punk sounds of The Blinders, and Sheffield favourites the Everly Pregnant Brothers renowned for their amusing spoof numbers. Other local and upcoming acts include Biig Piig, Before Breakfast and Bloxx.
This is just the first wave of talent set to perform at Tramlines 2021. Festival-goers should keep an eye out for further lineup announcements, plus further announcements from across the festival site including, comedy and cabaret entertainment, fabulous food and drink offerings and much much more.
Tramlines Festival will be working closely with the local authorities and following all the latest government guidance. If for any reason the festival is not able to take place then in keeping with 2020, ticket buyers will have the option to retain their ticket for next year’s event or recieve a face value refund on their purchase prices.
