About Dodgy + The Icicle Works

Two bands from the same stretch of the '80s indie and Britpop landscape share the bill, pairing jangly guitar hooks with a run of songs that have stayed on radio playlists for decades. Expect a crowd of devoted longtime fans who know every lyric, alongside curious newcomers drawn by the double billing.

The setup makes for a night of contrasts: one act built on driving post-punk energy, the other on singalong choruses and warm nostalgia. A Friday evening slot means the atmosphere builds gradually, with time for both bands to stretch out.

Where to stay nearby

Birmingham itself is the obvious base, just a kilometre from the venue and with by far the widest choice of hotels — over a hundred in the catalog, covering every budget and style. Sutton Coldfield, a short distance to the north, offers a quieter alternative with a handful of hotels if you'd rather avoid the city centre buzz. Cheltenham is a further-out option, about 66km away, useful mainly if you're combining the gig with other plans in that direction or if Birmingham's options are booked up; it has a large hotel selection but will mean a longer journey to the venue and back.

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.
