From February 19-22 2025, Outdoor Places Unusual Spaces (OPUS) will transform several locations across Birmingham into a gallery of illuminated artworks.
Birmingham Light Festival will encourage Birmingham residents and visitors to explore and see the city in a different light.
At least eight light artworks, all within walking distance of each other, will see visitors come together and explore Birmingham. Some of the illuminated artworks will remain in place after the festival, as organisers commit to brightening city spaces more permanently over time.
Birmingham Light Festival will be brought to life with an accompanying programme of events, to be announced in the New Year. Local organisations are being invited to be a part of the line-up.
Organised by City Curator and produced by OPUS, Birmingham Light Festival is bringing together all five of Birmingham’s central Business Improvement Districts (BIDs) as founding partners of this major event for the first time. Colmore BID, Central BID, Southside District, Westside BID and Jewellery Quarter BID are working together to create a new and exciting experience for the people of Birmingham and beyond, to brighten up February’s dark nights.
