Whether you're just arriving in Sheffield to embark on your university career, or returning for another year, you've made an excellent choice in picking Steel City as your home for higher education.
The iconic South Yorkshire city has an incredible quality of living, affordable rent, cheap booze and transport, all factors that help your student loan stretch that bit further and help make the transition from being a dependent to an independent that bit easier.
Alongside the well-respected universities, Sheffield boasts a thriving nightlife, including clubs like Code, Corporation and Hope Works and live music venues such as the SU club Foundry, Plug and of course the O2 Academy.
So with Sheffield freshers week 2022 on the brink of kicking off, there are so many different Sheffield freshers events to sink your teeth into with the strangers soon to be your bezzie mates.
Once freshers is over, and the headache subsides, you can keep tabs on what's happening in the Steel City, with Skiddle's What's On in Sheffield guide.
