With their great density of large ballroom venues and proximity to plenty of major attractions and entertainment spots, the City Centre and Chinese Quarter are some of the most popular areas for these types of events in Birmingham. The trendy Jewellery Quarter is home to some stylish spaces perfect for a laid-back ballroom event, while Digbeth offers a great variety of ballrooms, from elegant to industrial! However, if hosting an event among the city's hustle and bustle is not your cup of tea, there's also plenty in store for you in Birmingham! For the most picturesque surroundings, we recommend checking out some ballrooms for hire near the Birmingham Botanical Gardens. The suburbs can be a great solution if you know transport won't be a problem to your guests or if you organise it yourself. You should be able to find some great ballrooms around Edgbaston and Moseley!
