Sheffield Clubbers of the Week: Tramlines Special
What a weird and wavey weekend
Dominic PennaIf Louis Theroux ever revives his iconic Weird Weekends series, his first port of call should be Sheffield during Tramlines. For three days (or four if you're doing it properly), the Steel City comes alive in a magical mixture of beats, bops and, of course, booze.
This year, around 30,000 people caught Phonics and Noel at Hillsborough Park, thousands more went to Fringe events across the city, and the vast majority of them went out afterwards. Even when pints were a fiver, everyone still got absolutely hammered, which is a beautiful reflection of Sheffield, its students and people.
Behold this week's Clubbers of the Week, who were well and truly living their best lives across one of the best festivals the country has to offer.
