The Sheffield culture guide written by in-the-know locals

Future Now Festival of Creativity showcases the work of Sheffield Creative Industries Institute's graduating students, including artists, designers, filmmakers, animators, writers, architects and performers. It asks emerging creatives to show us the future through exhibitions, events, performances and screenings.

Future Now Festival of Creativity takes place across Sheffield city centre through April, May, and June 2026.

Graduating students from across Sheffield Hallam’s Creative Industries Institute will be exhibiting their work which presents creative proposals to real world problems.

The festival is Sheffield’s biggest student-led exhibition and features the best emerging talent in art, design, fashion, film, architecture, and performance industries that the city has to offer.
