A dance event to remember
Seven of the world’s finest Latin musicians are being flown in from Barcelona at the end of April for what’s billed as “the most ambitious Salsa In The Square in the event’s ten-year history” .
Leopold Square-based Cubana have been in negotiation with El Negrito Xulas, one of the most sought after bands of their style in the Europe, for months. The seven native Cubans are renowned for their weekly residency at top Barcelona nightclub BarSamba but later next month they’ve been persuaded to entertain the crowds in Sheffield.
The first Salsa In The Square of 2023 is set to take place outdoors in Sheffield city centre’s Leopold Square on Bank Holiday Sunday 30 April. The free outdoor salsa spectacular is being organised by Cubana and co-promoter RC Dance in association with Havana Club. The event also offers Latin dance displays, DJs and more.
Latin tunes will be supplied by ever popular DJs Anna De Orte from Barcelona and Roly Caballero (Havana, Cuba).
Adrian Bagnoli, co-owner of Cubana, said: “Being able to fly El Negrito Xulas over from Spain will give Sheffield audiences one of the very best Cuban live bands they will ever witness. We’re really looking forward for the most exciting Salsa In he Square.”
Cubana Tapas Bar is situated at Unit 4 Leopold Square, Sheffield S1 2JG. Bookings can be made on

School design challenge
Wentworth Woodhouse has launched a schools design challenge to celebrate the 300th anniversary of John Carr, the north’s greatest 18th century architect.
Grade I listed Wentworth Woodhouse in Rotherham owes much of its grandeur to Carr. To celebrate his achievements and encourage future talent, it has teamed with nationwide conservation architects Donald Insall Associates and nine other John Carr sites across the north to launch the John Carr 300 Challenge.
Donald Insalls’ architects have recreated drawings of each beautiful building - from the oldest surviving stone racecourse grandstand in the world to the iconic Crescent in Buxtonand deliberately left out one important element.
The owners of these landmark buildings are each encouraging schools in their area to study Carr’s life - and task their students with completely redesigning the missing feature.
Carr carried out numerous projects at Wentworth Woodhouse. He redesigned parts of the 606-feet long East Front, created its grand staircase, the estate’s Keppel’s Column, Needle’s Eye and Rockingham Mausoleum and the huge Stable Block.
Schools will be tasked with redesigning Stable Block’s imposing central archway and clock tower.
Each site will work with Donald Insalls’ architects to choose winners from educational Key Stages 1, 2 and 3 at the end of June. The best designs will go on show at each site during the national Heritage Open Days festival in September.
Welcome to my office Views from the roofs of S6
Simon Slater of Slaters Aerial Services has a different ‘office view’ to most of us –a rooftop vista of Sheffield. But can you guess where exactly he was when he took this photograph?
Follow @SlatersAerials on Twitter – the answer will be revealed at the end of each month. Last time, did you spot that Simon was on Glossop Road looking towards West Street.
hen Linda Bloomfield moved to Sheffield four years ago, she had ambitions of working in a community arts centre, something she had spent much of her career doing previously. Only there was no such arts centre here so, in February 2021, she decided to start her own. That’s how RivelinCo was born.
RivelinCo is a neighbourhood arts centre ‘without walls’. This means that their creative programme take place in parks, supermarkets, community centres, high streets, car parks, empty shops, libraries, schools and care homestemporarily transforming them into theatres, cinemas, galleries, workshops, classrooms and forums.
