Say goodbye to Herd of Sheffield at Meadowhall

Meadowhall is set to host an event to say farewell to the Herd of Sheffield as The Children’s Hospital Charity says a final goodbye to its elephants who are heading to pastures new.

The 58 elephants will be marching off Sheffield streets before making a farewell appearance at the centre October 14th-16th.

This event will give visitors a chance to see all the elephants in their glory - from the Arctic Monkeys’ “AM”, signed and named after their 2013 hit album, right through to “SnookHerd”, autographed by a host of international snooker players celebrating the heritage of snooker in the city.

The Herd together makes the largest public art event the city has ever seen.

Meadowhall will be the first and last time The Herd will be in one place and open to the public, before being auctioned off to raise funds for The Children’s Hospital on October 20th.
