Share
Exciting new music space and cultural hub, FØRGE is opening in September 2022 in Sheffield.
A stone’s throw from the heart of the centre of Sheffield, set amongst a backdrop of the city’s rich industrial heritage, FØRGE is a repurposed, victorian steel forge that lived out its final life producing duplex steel forms in 2018. The building has now been renovated into an immersive warehouse and events space that will host an eclectic programme of global and local acts, events and experiences opening on the 16th of September.
Working closely with Pioneer PRO AUDIO, the FØRGE sound system is set to turn heads utilising their incredible XY series cabinets and subs. The steel columns, tracks and architecture of the internal building once used for cranes have been impeccably mapped with a unique LED system that races around the space to intensify the atmosphere.

At its core, FØRGE aims to unite the dance music community within Sheffield and act as a catalyst to ignite the late-night culture in this great city. The venue offers a safe and inclusive space for people to come together and witness the most sought-after names in electronic music and beyond, descending on the venue.
The fully licensed and unique site boasts multiple industrial spaces that will cater for different purposes. The Yard can host outdoor events overlooking the Tinsley Canal, the Workroom once used as a stable and workshop will act as a platform for Sheffield’s up-and-coming talent in a more intimate surrounding and the FØRGE will be the main event. Expect a program of global acts and local talent alike, underground Techno, House music, Drum & Bass will all have a home at FØRGE, amongst live music acts and bands, arts and food.
Launching on 16th September they welcome British influential artist Dax J, rising star IMOGEN and the formidable Boxia from the Drumcode roster will be in attendance. Sheffield’s local scene will be some of the most promising DJ’s the great city has to offer, Alex Aubyn, Chapel Walk, Colecta, Fen, Porter Brook and STI.
