Spirit of Adventure 2025 - 14 & 15th November

Welcome to Spirit of Adventure 2025

Two evenings filled with the best films that embody the spirit of adventuring, with live choral music, pizza and drinks

Designed to be seen and heard in the unique surroundings of Sheffield Cathedral, we once again bring the wild outdoors into the heart of the city with a unique curation of adventure films celebrating the "spirit" of adventure often found in surprising people and places.

Taking place on 14-15 November our hugely popular annual "Spirit Of Adventure" event will, for the first time, now not only span one evening but two! Comprising of four separate screenings, two on the Friday evening and two on Saturday evening, there will be four distinct sessions with different films. As always, we try to champion and platform local-made/based films amongst a collection of international films, and we're incredibly happy to have both The Trail Camera and In It To Wing It (both films made in Sheffield) in our Best of ShAFF collections. To see the full film programme, scroll down.

Continuing on the theme of firsts, this year we have also partnered with Revive Sheffield Ski Village (RSSV) to produce the very first iteration of a local Snow Show here in Sheffield. With a ski slope, stalls with activities for all ages, and a DJ, there will be a lot of fun to be had around the film screenings.

A firm favourite for the setting is the live choral music, and we'll be joined by Chesterfield Community Choir on Friday and Sonority Choir on Saturday. We'll also be joined again by Sunshine Pizza, and the Cathedral will be opening their bar, so plenty of food and drink available on both evenings.

So, grab your ticket at the top of the page whilst they're still available and come on down to the Cathedral for two evenings of celebrating the 'spirit' of adventuring as well as kicking off the new snow season. See you there!
