The OEC is Set to Reopen and We Can’t Wait to Welcome You Back!

It’s been a long time coming! The OEC is preparing to welcome you back to the best live events and VIP dining experiences in Sheffield. More than just a conference centre, The OEC has quickly become the place to go for thrilling live entertainment, exquisite dining, and fabulous weddings.

We were saddened by the closure of hospitality venues last year, though we were certainly willing to do our bit to help keep the public safe. We kept ourselves busy hosting blood donations and recycling our unused Christmas brochures. With our opening date on the near horizon, we are taking bookings for a full schedule of live entertainment and private events this year – in line with government safety guidelines. We can’t wait to welcome you all back.

The big day is Monday 21st June. Make sure to mark the date in your calendar as it’s when The OEC team will reopen the doors once again!

If you’re looking for what’s on in Sheffield or the biggest and best events in Sheffield post-lockdown, The OEC is here to offer you a host of tantalising opportunities to let your hair down once again.

With some amazing events coming your way this summer and autumn, we really do recommend you look at what we have in store and book your tickets.

As we start to reopen our venue, post-lockdown, it stands to reason there is going to be a bit of a rush when it comes to our popular events and evenings. Why not book a table for a friendly get-together, a birthday party or a works do? We have a delicious selection of menus for you to sample, designed and prepared by our amazing, world-class kitchen team.

One of the main reasons people choose The OEC for entertainment and parties is our schedule of award-winning tribute acts – we have something for everyone to enjoy. We also feature a selection of ‘interactive’ entertainment evenings, from the bonkers Bingo Revolution and mysterious clairvoyance evenings to flower arranging workshops with afternoon tea and our fabulous August wedding fayre.

For all the sports buffs out there, our sporting dinners are not to be missed! This year we are delighted to host two of England’s top cricket legends, Beefy Botham & Dusty Miller. The duo will host a live and silent auction while their guests tuck into a delectable three-course dinner. We also have VIP and VVIP tickets available for the most enthusiastic cricket fans to get their hands on!

All of this arrives with our impeccable hospitality standards. From our mouth-watering menus to our at-seat VIP service, you can be sure to receive the red carpet welcome at The OEC from the moment we welcome you.
