BrindleyPlace Summertime: Movies, Sport & More
BrindleyPlace Summertime is back this July with an unforgettable lineup of movies, live sports, and vibrant entertainment right in the heart of Birmingham. The popular Central Square is once again transformed into an open-air venue, inviting visitors to enjoy top films and sporting events under the sky — all made possible with cutting-edge screen technology provided by Grand Technix.
This year’s event runs from 5 to 27 July, bringing daily broadcasts of major sporting events, including Wimbledon, the Tour de France, Formula 1, and UEFA Women’s Euros. Whether you’re cheering for your team or enjoying a casual watch with friends, the viewing experience is elevated thanks to Grand Technix’s high-definition modular LED screen, delivering crisp visuals and powerful audio across the square.
The Brindley Film Festival adds a cinematic twist to the calendar, starting from 10 July. Visitors can catch blockbuster films such as Barbie, Top Gun: Maverick, Rocketman, and Indiana Jones: Dial of Destiny. With family favourites and cult classics showing each evening, it’s the perfect summer escape — just bring a blanket or grab a deckchair and settle in.
Grand Technix’s screen system has been central to the atmosphere this year, with its vibrant display and fast content switching making it ideal for transitioning between sports coverage and evening film screenings. Designed to thrive in outdoor environments, the screen ensures top-quality visuals even in full daylight, keeping the audience engaged from start to finish.
Beyond the screen, BrindleyPlace offers a full summer vibe with pop-up gardens, local food stalls, and community activities. Highlights include the Midlands Record Fair and live music sessions, making the area not just a viewing space but a social hub. The event is completely free, open to all, and easy to enjoy with surrounding cafés and restaurants just steps away.
