Why Visit Birmingham?

Known as ‘Brum’ by locals, Birmingham has been a dynamic city since the 18th century when it was at the helm of the British Industrial Revolution. Its waterways, once crucial transport networks for commercial goods, are now places to unwind within the vibrant urban medley that is the UK’s second-largest city. Sherborne Wharf is the heart of the canal system which irrigates Birmingham in a network of cool cafes, relaxed tow paths and pretty city gardens.
Though Birmingham is at the forefront of the Midlands contemporary art scene, it’s also home to some of the best museums in the UK. Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery is renowned for its pre-Raphaelite masterpieces and the Staffordshire Hoard. Soho House is a fascinating glimpse into Birmingham’s golden era, and Aston House, built in the 1600s, is a fine example of a Jacobean architecture. The Custard Factory and Thinktank are perfect places for families with kids and the Ikon Gallery is the top venue for contemporary art.
