Birmingham Weekender

Birmingham Weekender returns this summer with over 100 free events to enjoy. Between Saturday 27th – Sunday 28th August 2022, enjoy an eclectic programme of events with a mixture of dance, film, music, installations and performances throughout the city centre.

The cultural festival, produced by Birmingham Hippodrome, in partnership with Bullring & Grand Central and supported by Birmingham City Council, and Arts Council England, features many of the best artists from Birmingham and the West Midlands, alongside exciting international artists and installations.

A huge highlight will be the Dutch installation de Relaxerette, a large-scale structure where audience members can listen to music, poetry and stories in hammocks which are gently lifted from the ground in a truly relaxing experience.

Brum’s Big Splash – a 60m slip and slide will be installed down Central Street. Tickets are free to book, slip and sliders will be in with a chance of winning Bullring & Grand Central gift cards for turning up in the most stylish and outrageous fancy dress.
