6 unusual ideas to celebrate Mother's Day in Sheffield

These events offer something a bit more out of the ordinary to make sure your mum's special day is a memorable one.

Get baking

Have fun getting creative in the kitchen at a special Mother's Day 'doughnot' making workshop at Krynkl, hosted by Elly Joy, popular creator of guilt-free indulgences.

The naked gluten free and vegan doughnots (two vanilla and two chocolate) will be provided and an array of glazes and toppings will be available for you to craft your own tasty creations.

Discover new music

Having kicked off on Monday 5 March, Sheffield's Classical Fringe will be in town until Mother's Day at the Winter Garden and Virgin Money Lounge, offering the ideal opportunity for you and your mum to discover new music together.

Live classical performances will be provided by Sheffield Flute Choir, Octogenesis and Hallam Sinfonia String Quartet, among others.

Enjoy a tipple

Celebrate Mother's Day a little earlier this year and treat your mum to a tipple or two as The Gin Society arrives in Sheffield for the very first time, bringing with it more than 120 varieties of gins from around the world to try.

In the city on Friday 9 March until Saturday 10 March, there are plenty of exciting fruit flavoured gins and crafty cocktails to be had with a hint of vintage jazz, swing and lindy hop music provided the perfect relaxing soundtrack.

Go vintage hunting

Dubbed as the UK's best vintage fair, Lou Lou's will be rolling into Sheffield City Hall on Saturday 10 March, from 11am to 5pm, just in time for Mother's Day.
