Sheffield Betfred opening times compared

The full weekly pattern for all seventeen branches in one table, nearest the city centre first. Today’s column is highlighted.

The table sorts itself into three kinds of shop. The late three — Hillsborough, Darnall and Firth Park — run 08:00 to 22:00 Monday to Saturday. The two city-centre shops close between 20:30 and 21:30. The twelve neighbourhood shops mostly open at 09:00, close at 20:30 or 21:00, and shut at 18:00 on a Sunday. Two break their own pattern: Birley Moor Road stays open later on a Saturday (21:00), and Woodhouse later on a Sunday (21:30).

Betfred Sheffield Sunday opening times

Betfred Sheffield bank holiday opening times

Betting shops in England can trade on every bank holiday bar one. Premises licences issued under the Gambling Act 2005 carry a condition that gambling facilities cannot be provided on Christmas Day, so all seventeen Sheffield branches close on 25 December by law rather than by choice.

On the other bank holidays, Sheffield branches usually run either their normal times for that day of the week or a slightly shorter day. Betfred has in past years announced a chain-wide 20:00 close on bank holiday Mondays, which would take up to two hours off the Sheffield branches. Dates in the tables below update automatically.

Easter opening times

Betting shops have been allowed to open on Good Friday since the Gambling Act 2005 came into force, and there is no Easter Sunday restriction in Great Britain. Across the Easter weekend, expect each Sheffield branch to follow its usual pattern for that day.

May and August bank holidays

The early May, spring and summer bank holidays all fall on a Monday. Check the window card or the Betfred shop finder the week before; a 20:00 bank holiday close would take up to two hours off the Sheffield branches.

Christmas and New Year opening times

The festive fortnight is the only stretch of the year when Sheffield times move far from the weekly pattern. Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve normally finish early, Boxing Day — the biggest racing day of the winter — runs close to normal, and New Year’s Day starts later.

How the live opening times work

Everything live on this page reads the clock in Sheffield (UK time), not the clock on your device, and compares it against each shop’s published times. That keeps the status right even if you are checking from abroad.

The panel at the top

The top panel covers the two city-centre branches, on The Moor and Fitzalan Square. It tells you how many are open right now and how long until they close. The other fifteen have their own live rows in the sections below.

The shop rows

Open now means the shop is inside its published times and the countdown shows how long is left. Closed shows when it opens next. Counters stop taking cash bets a few minutes before closing so staff can settle slips, so if you are collecting winnings, aim to arrive ten minutes before the time shown.

Map, directions and Street View

Each row has three buttons. Map drops a pin on the shop, Directions plans a route from wherever you are, and Street View shows the street around the shop so you can spot the frontage before you set off. Tap “Use my current location” and the lists re-order themselves so the closest shop is always at the top, and the directions button points to the nearest of all seventeen Sheffield branches.

Betfred across the rest of Sheffield

Fifteen more branches serve the rest of the city: six in the north, from Hillsborough and Firth Park to Parson Cross and Southey; four in the east, from Darnall to Woodhouse and Crystal Peaks; and five in the south, from Arbourthorne and Gleadless to Woodseats and Lowedges.
