Birmingham – a great conference location

At the heart of England, Birmingham is a bustling multicultural city with plenty of appeal whether your visit is for business or leisure.

Over the past few years Birmingham has been rejuvenated and the city has now a very contemporary vibe - from the regenerated Bullring with its iconic Selfridges building to Symphony Hall and the International Convention Centre.

From café culture to bars, clubs and nightlife, Birmingham boasts a thriving cultural scene with world-class music, entertainment and arts attractions and venues. For drama, classics, opera, ballet and musicals there’s the Hippodrome (home of the Birmingham Royal Ballet), the Alexandra and Birmingham Repertory Theatre.

The Midland Arts Centre plays host to an eclectic range of theatrical events, films, workshops and exhibitions. And of course the renowned Royal Shakespeare Company is only 45 minutes at Stratford-upon-Avon.

For art lovers, Birmingham has a lot to offer. The Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery contains the world's leading collection of Pre-Raphaelite art; the Barber Institute of Fine Art, boasts an unrivalled collection of renaissance and impressionist art; and the Ikon Gallery is a must for viewing amazing contemporary work.

You can shop til you drop in Birmingham, taking your pick from glitzy shopping malls, restored Victorian arcades and a range of traditional markets. The Bullring is Birmingham’s retail heaven with over 160 shops, boutiques and restaurants spread over an area that’s the equivalent of 26 football pitches! Not forgetting the spectacular Mailbox building, home to designer stores, restaurants, hotels, apartments and businesses.

Birmingham is also synonymous with sports. It hosts several major sporting fixtures and boasts three leading football clubs - Aston Villa, Birmingham City and West Bromwich Albion – and international cricket is played at Edgbaston’s Warwickshire County Cricket Club.
