Do you remember paying your gas bills at Canada House? Did you dance the night away at Turn Ups nightclub? Or did you eat all you could eat at the Chinese Buffet? Visit us at our memory cafe, bring your photos, and reminisce about the past history of Canada House.
Your will also have the opportunity to take part in a tour of the building. The tour will visit the old first floor offices - including the stunning painted boardroom - and the ground floor main hall where visitors will marvel at the beautiful domed ceiling.
Once the headquarters of the Sheffield United Gas Light Company, Canada House has had a varied past, from its role in the Second World War, its reincarnation as an 80s nightclub, and then as an all-you-can-eat Chinese Buffet in the 2000s.
Harmony Works is working to restore and revitalise the currently unused Canada House, a Grade II* listed building in the heart of Sheffield city centre, to create a vibrant and inspirational home for music education and opportunity, enriching and enhancing the lives and futures of young people and their communities across the region. An exhibition on the ground floor will bring visitors up-to-date with plans to regenerate and re-purpose the building once more.
