Many people in the city rent properties from Sheffield Property Management firms like The Letting Company. This UK city is a highly desirable place to live with a great diversity of neighbourhoods, people and attractions. For those who are considering renting in Sheffield, here's some information on just a few of the fun and exciting things to do. Hot Air Balloon Festival This is a family-oriented summertime event attended by many locals who rent houses or own prime properties in Sheffield. It never fails to leave children wide-eyed. For the festival, Graves Park is transformed into a launch site where over 30 spectacularly coloured and designed hot air balloons are tethered. Although many of the balloons are the familiar round shape, some are shaped like familiar objects like batteries and beer mugs. The festival also includes a display from the collection of the Balloon Preservation Group. The event attracts balloonists from all over the UK and Europe and features the British Hot Air Balloon Team. When the balloons ascend majestically skyward, it's an impressive sight! The weekend-long festival is highlighted by the "Magical Glow Night," where the lighted balloons flicker in time with an amazing musical presentation. A fireworks display caps off the spectacle. Other activities include free balloon rides and competitions between the balloons. There's also a marching band, puppet theatres and fire jugglers. Adults can enjoy the licensed bar and the food court serves an impressive variety of refreshments for all. Best of all, it's just a short walk back to many a rental property, home or other abode in Sheffield. Britain's Biggest and Spookiest Halloween Party: Fright Night Since 1999, the Sheffield Events Company has been putting on this boo-tiful event in Sheffield City Centre where ghosts and goblins freely roam.
