Your visit

Coming to Off the Shelf this year? Here’s what to expect at our live events

Purchasing tickets

All tickets are available to book online via our Events page and the Sheffield Theatres Box Office until the time the event starts. Our door team will be on hand to help you with purchases at the event. Please remember, we won’t be accepting cash, so we highly recommend booking in advance.

You can also book tickets in person at The Crucible, 55 Norfolk Street, Sheffield S1 1DA and by phone on 0114 249 6000.

Doors Opening Time

We aim to open auditoriums for entry 30 minutes prior to the scheduled event start time.

Book sales

Most events will feature bookstalls and author signings. You’ll have the opportunity to browse and purchase books both before and after each event. We extend our thanks to our book sales partners—Waterstones, Rhyme & Reason, La Biblioteka, and Juno Books—for their invaluable support in making this possible.
