The Sheffield – A Very Violent Valentines: Unsolved 2026 event takes place at Sheffield Plate in Orchard Square, right in the city centre and a short walk from Sheffield’s main tram and bus stops. Aim to arrive a little before 7:00pm to grab a good seat, buy a drink and settle in before the storytelling begins. Food and drink are available on site, so you can make a full evening of it without needing to move on elsewhere.
