The Sheffield Fiesta first opened its doors in August 1970. In the late 70s, partly as a result of the economic downturn in the local steel industry, the Fiesta found the going tough, and in 1976 after a fight with trade-unions, closed. The staff were sent into the dole-queue.

Seizing upon the chance to run this highly regarded venue, a Scarborough-based company stepped in and after a substantial re-fit, the Sheffield Fiesta once more opened its doors and entertained the people of Sheffield - this time with fully produced floor-shows and a large dance-band (the Andy Wardaugh Band).

Sadly, their style of entertainment didn't seem to fit well, and it wasn't long before financial pressures caused the management to relinquish the club into the hands of the Rank organisation (who operated two other venues close-by).

The building which formerly housed Club Fiesta is now the Odeon multi-screen cinema.
