PREVIEW: Tramlines Festival Returns To Sheffield 24-26th July 2015



The final Lineup for Sheffield's finest festival has now been released. Tramlines will return to the city from 24th - 26th July offering a plethora of amazing artists. From Drum and Bass, Hip Hop, Soul, Jazz, electronic music, Indie and Prog rock, there will be something to satisfy every musical taste. Priding itself as one of the UK's biggest inner-city festivals and now returning for a seventh year, the line-up looks bigger and better than ever before.

What makes Tramlines so special is the multi-venue approach. Performances take place in a variety of settings. From the splendour of Sheffield cathedral, to smaller venues across the city including live street entertainment, there is definitely a buzz about the place sans the typical muddy fields so characteristic of festival environments.
