Local carols are a strong tradition in the North of Sheffield and have generally grown from the Stannington and Dungworth villages.
You will find crowds of people, a small(ish) brass ensemble, and a fantastic atmosphere of community and fellowship. Closer to Stannington and Dungworth the evenings are almost exclusively Local Carols, further south you’ll find more of a mix. Join a few evenings and see for yourself! Please check bands’ own websites for confirmation of dates / times.
