Sheffield has long been blessed with an excellent array of nightclubs for people to choose from on nights out.

Some of Sheffield’s most popular clubs from years prior have now sadly closed, so we asked our readers which ones they would like to bring back.

The Limit closed in 1991, but not before becoming a stalwart of the West Street music scene and hosting popular bands like the Human League and Def Leppard.
