Capitol has recently reopened as Area 51, When it was Capitol, it was Basically A Large Warehouse. A  Very Poor Basis For A Club. Bare Concrete Walls, No Decor And The Poorest Acoustics Of Any Club In Sheffield. However as Area51, they say they have completely replaced everything.

The Music Factory Has Been Closed For Two Years. It Was Briefly Called [ClubGeneration] But Closed After Some Trouble
However The Door Security Was Said To Be More Secure Than The Average Airport. A Famous Story About The Music Facory Was The Style Police On The Door, Who Wouldn't Let You In If Your Jeans Weren't Expensive Enough. Another one goes back to the locarno days in the early seventies, where Top Of The Pops was hosted there one week, but they only let people in who were proper dancers!

Rebels Was Taken Over And Closed In A Scam Deal To Get A Licence For Capital, When the licence Was Granted, The Former Rebels Staff Were Sacked. The Club Was On  The Top Floor And You Had To Queue Up Four Flights Of Stairs.
The Rebels sign is still up however, and the premesis is " to let " as a nightclub. But these days all the rock people are happily accomodated across the road in Under The Boardwalk and The Corporation
See the Rebels feature section on this website for more details -> HERE

The Republic Was Opened About 1996, It is a converted factory building. The main room is very tall, almost like a cathederal, with a high balcony which you can go up to, and look through the railings down to the dance floor. They have a large crane, still in situ in the sky, which is now home to a large fancy light show.

CLUB UROPA for many years Isabellas, now have their own website -  www.sheffieldscene.co.uk/cluburopa/index.html

The Leadmill was opened in 1980, it is Sheffield's remaining legendary venue. A former collection of fabrication and sheet metalwork factories. It is more than a gig venue and disco however.

The Roxy Is Closed, But It Is A Very Large Club With Several Bars On Two Floors. It Has A Large Dancefloor And Stage, With A Very Expensive Light Show, With Moving Gantries, Which Come Right Down Over The Dance Floor. There Are Also A Couple Of Small Dance Floors On The Upper Level.
As the Top Rank Suite in the seventies and early eighties The Police, Bad Manners and The Jam played.
In the Eighties when the club became Barry Noble's Roxy, and was marketed as a very cheesy chart night club. Barry Noble himself, used to tell jokes in the advert on local commercial radio, to a silly tart named Tracy, a regular customer, we were to presume. These adverts ended however with the sudden untimely death of Barry Noble, and the club reverted to The Roxy.

According to a report in the weekly Sheffield Telegraph 30-12-99 the Roxy is going to be demolished as part of a larger scheme to improve the area between Pond Street and Arundel Gate.

The Corporation Nightclub
on Bank Street, is a rock club. They now have their own website at www.sheffieldscene.co.uk/corporation/index.html
This place was opened as the Cavendish Club in May 1967, it was the first nightclub in Sheffield.
It has had several name changes, in the 1970s it became Bailey's, then Romeo & Juliets,
then in 1980's it became Cairo Jax

Po Na Na - Souk Bar I haven't seen any information about this venue at present, it was closed between about mid 1999-jan2000. It Was Kiki's For Over A Decade. The Rhythm Room Refurbishment Is Lavish, With Expensive Pine Floor And Restraunt Type Seating. Work is being carried out at feverish pace though and I'll bet that it's open for Christmas.
Cubas is now called The Fez Club

The Underground now have a bebsite at  www.sheffieldscene.co.uk/underground/index.html
