What to do and see in Birmingham, England: The Best Conference & Convention Centers
The geographical heart of England, Birmingham started life as a sixth- century Anglo-Saxon village. Today, much of this city of over a million dates back to post-WWII redevelopment in the 1950s and 60s. Cutting edge museums and galleries, innovative theaters and excellent shopping have contributed to Birmingham's appeal as a weekend break destination. Don't miss the hopping bars and cafes of Gas Street Basin or the fascinating creatures at the National Sea Life Centre.

Travelled to Birmingham from Cornwall for Transatlantic sessions concert at the Symphony Hall! Certainly not disappointed! comfortable seats, brilliant acoustics and a fabulous show. well done to everyone involved! Only downside was the price of drinks at the venue! two very small soft-drinks, over £8 !!! I think that is a bit cheeky!

Simply magical with all the Christmas stalls selling decorations, presents, lights, toys. Plenty of food stalls to choose from to keep u going. Extremely busy though so if your not a crowd person it’s not for u. Book tickets before hand online and u get them cheaper than on the door. Would definitely recommend a visit.
