It’s Our Birthday! We’re turning 654 this month🎉

Another year around the sun Digbeth! This month we are getting ready to host our 654th birthday, with an events programme that’s bigger and better than ever before.

On Saturday 17th September we will be hosting our FREE birthday party will featuring live music performances, DJs and even a high wire performance across the freshly renovated garden courtesy of Circus Mash!  

Circus performer Ellis Grover, who has previously done a high wire walk over a quarry with a 150-metre drop, will be attempting to walk across our iconic terrace and onto the roof throughout the evening! Expect party bags containing lots of treats, goodies, and plenty of cocktails to properly celebrate the big occasion! 

 You can even expect delicious food served from our everyday menu and their brand new Hatch Menu, which includes light bites and street food such as wings and tacos!

Ocean Colour Scene make their triumphant return to Brum and we’re hosting the OFFICIAL afterparty!
