Reverend and The Makers are set to launch a pop-up shop at Meadowhall from May 8 to May 10, 2026, to promote their new album, ‘Is This How Happiness Feels?’. The event will feature exclusive merchandise, including signed copies and a limited Sheffield edition vinyl.
Darren Pearce, the center director at Meadowhall, expressed excitement about the event. He stated, “It’s brilliant to welcome Reverend and the Makers back to Meadowhall. They’re a huge part of Sheffield’s music scene, and this pop-up gives fans a really special chance to celebrate the new album.”
During the three-day event, fans can expect spontaneous performances from the band. Jon McClure, the lead singer, mentioned, “We’re buzzing to be doing a brand-new pop-up shop at Meadowhall. Think three days of music, mayhem and madness – come down and be part of it. Grab the new album and support our chart push!”
In addition to this musical highlight, recent reports have drawn attention to Yorkshire beaches. Scarborough South Bay has been named one of the dirtiest beaches in England, while Bridlington South Beach has improved its water quality and is no longer classified as a Brown Flag beach.
The Brown Flag Awards for 2026 recognized only 15 beaches in England for their excellent water quality. Yorkshire currently ranks 12th out of 19 English coastal counties for clean bathing water, with only 52% of its beaches rated ‘excellent’. In contrast, England overall boasts a higher figure of 68%.
