About Big Country + The Alarm

Two bands who came up together on the same post-punk circuit share a bill decades on, trading their old label of new wave for something closer to heritage rock. Expect widescreen guitar sounds, anthemic choruses built for a full room to sing back, and setlists leaning hard on the songs that made both names in the first place.

A Thursday night crowd here tends to be long-time devotees rather than casual passers-by, people who followed both groups from the start. There's a particular charge in seeing them together rather than on separate package tours.

Where to stay nearby

Birmingham itself is the obvious base, with well over a hundred hotels in the city and the venue barely a kilometre from your door, so no real travel planning is needed. Sutton Coldfield offers a quieter alternative about 10km out, with a handful of hotels for those who prefer to stay somewhat removed from the city centre. Cheltenham is a further-flung option at 66km away, better suited to those combining the gig with other plans, or if Birmingham and Sutton Coldfield are fully booked, given its large hotel selection.

Birmingham — about 1 km away

Birmingham city center puts you steps from most major venues and offers the full range of restaurants, bars, and nightlife. With over 100 hotels on our catalog, you'll find options at every budget and comfort level, making this the natural choice for event-goers who want zero travel time.

Sutton Coldfield — about 10 km away

Sutton Coldfield, 10km north, suits visitors who prefer a quieter, more residential setting and don't mind a short drive or local bus journey into the city. It's a small cluster of towns with limited hotel availability, best for those with advance planning and their own transport.

Cheltenham — about 66 km away

Cheltenham, 66km south, is a picturesque Georgian spa town with over 340 hotels and excellent character—but it's a solid hour's drive from Birmingham venues. Only consider basing yourself here if you're combining your visit with time in Cheltenham itself, or if central Birmingham is fully booked.
