Join us in celebration of Birmingham’s industrial and musical history, with drinks and a tour around our Victorian factory.
We know that working a 9-to-5 job or living the student life can exclude you from delving into the historical culture of Birmingham, so that's why we are keeping the doors of our Victorian manufactory open late, so that you do not miss out.
Join us on a Thursday Summer evening to celebrate Birmingham’s industrial and musical history. We'll be playing a mix of Birmingham's very own in the courtyard before the tour, including: Black Sabbath, UB40, ELO, and much, much more.
When you arrive, enjoy a drink as part of your ticket price in our courtyard. We have our very own "Newman's Gold" ale, made for us by the Birmingham Brewing Co., prosecco, and elderflower pressé. There will be the opportunity to have more drinks at an additional cost.
The tour will commence at 18:30, and will last around an hour.
Tickets are £15 per person.
If the weather is poor, we are able to provide shelter in the courtyard.
