Legends Unleashed city-wide trail launches this summer!
Join a FREE, fun, family adventure in Sheffield City Centre
This August, families and Greek mythology enthusiasts alike are invited to join an exciting and engaging trail through three key Sheffield city centre venues: The Moor, Orchard Square, and Leah’s Yard.
This first of its kind, city-wide trail, entitled Legends Unleashed, promises fun and adventure for all ages, making it an ideal summer activity!
Based on a collection of mythical monster tales from ancient Greece, Legends Unleashed encompasses a trail of clues and riddles across all three locations for participants to solve. Participant teams who complete all three trails will have a chance to win a £100 voucher to spend at one of the participating venues.
Designed and developed by Sandesh Somani, Creative Director for Experiential Games, in conjunction with the three designated locations, the trail will run from Monday 4th August until Sunday, 31st August – and everyone is welcome to join in. Entry is free, with the opportunity to win prizes – and up to £100 to spend in the city centre!
Commenting on the trail, Sandesh said: “I have long had the idea of developing a city-wide initiative, creating an experience which invites people to explore, interact and connect.
“Given the city’s association with the Greek god of forge, fire, metal working and craftsman I thought it would be apt to develop a family friendly trail based on the stories from Greek mythology.
“The premise of the trail is that legendry monsters have taken over Sheffield City Centre, meaning participants must work out clues and puzzles to help set the city free from their grip! I hope that this trail ignites imaginations and interest, encouraging people to visit the city for a chance to play and win.”
Tom Wolfenden, Director or Leah’s Yard commented: “Leah’s Yard is delighted to be part of the Legends Unleashed trail this summer, alongside The Moor and Orchard Square. Collaboration is the heartbeat of our city centre – collectively as a city we can create a vibrant community where imaginations are sparked, innovation thrives, opportunities grow – and everyone benefits.”
Lee Appleton, Director of The Moor adds: “Legends Unleashed is a great initiative for the city centre, enhancing creativity and connection in bringing people together to share and experience our city centre community.”
Participants can start their adventure at any of the following collection points:
– The Moor: Forbidden Planet
– Orchard Square: Sheffield Plate
– Leah’s Yard: Chocolate Bar
All those taking part are encouraged to return to their starting point with the completed answer book to claim their rewards.
Shay Murray, Orchard Square, added: “We’re thrilled to be collaborating with Leah’s Yard and The Moor to bring a free family activity to Sheffield city centre this summer. This city-wide trail offers an adventure for all the family, filled with mystery and fun, in the heart of Sheffield this summer. It also signifies the start of a partnership between our venues that we hope to continue, bringing even more fun and entertainment to the people of Sheffield and beyond in the future. We can’t wait to see you taking part. Good luck!”
