Lord Mayors Show

Lord Mayors Show

Birmingham City Centre

This annual spectacular takes place on Spring Bank Holiday Monday and is one of the council’s most prestigious civic events, attracting over 20,000 people into the City Centre. A highlight of Birmingham’s civic calendar, it is the annual introduction of the new Lord Mayor to the city and a fond farewell to the outgoing one. As well as raising money for the Lord Mayor’s charities, the event is a great day out for the whole family.

The show offers entertainment for all ages including live musical performances on the main stage with local singers, dance performances and children’s entertainment.

Other attractions and activities include face painting, craft stalls and activities, army displays and recruitment stands, children’s workshops and a vintage vehicle display. There will also be refreshments on sale and even the chance to have tea with the Lord Mayor!

Lord Mayor, Councillor Anita Ward would like to thank everyone who braved the rain to attend the 2011 Show and make it such a successful event, despite the weather.
