Bishops’ House is not only a museum and very beautiful Grade II* listed building, it is also at the heart of a community hosting events for everyone to enjoy. Many of our events are free – such as our medieval fair and re-enactments events, and our children’s events.

With the same community spirit, for many years Bishops’ House has hosted free history talks.
Free History Talks
Yes free! – but we only have limited seating so we have to offer them on a ticketed basis. Please ..only claim tickets that you seriously intend to use.
Bishops’ House is one of Sheffield’s very best music venues – intimate, atmospheric and with wonderful acoustics. We have hosted hundreds of gigs over the years: folky, poppy, experimental, classical – you name it!
If you are a band or musician hoping to play here, please note that we are all volunteers and are sorry that we can’t keep up with the volume of enquiries to reply to them all, but we do read the emails and accommodate where we have the capacity and it seems suitable.
