Hotels for Bloc Party & Interpol Co-Headline Tour

Two bands who came up through the same early-2000s post-punk revival share the bill, each with their own devoted following. Expect a night built on angular guitars, driving basslines and the kind of songs that a certain generation of gig-goers know word for word. A co-headline set-up usually means a tighter, punchier show from both acts rather than one long slow build. Doors open early for a Friday night, so there's little dead time between arriving and the music starting.

Set right in the heart of Birmingham beside the canals and Brindleyplace, this city-centre arena hosts big-name concerts, boxing and family shows. Its location is a real draw, with waterside bars, restaurants and the buzz of Broad Street all within a short walk. New Street and Snow Hill stations are close, and the wider West Midlands is easy to reach. Booking a central room means you can enjoy the canalside dining before a show and be back at your door within minutes afterwards.
