City Centre

Take a stroll through Birmingham’s city centre squares and streets to find fabulous shops and restaurants, fantastic street entertainment and stunning architecture.

Does Birmingham have a city centre?

Yes, Birmingham has a city centre. In fact, Birmingham city centre is a modern, bustling area full of fantastic places to eat, a number of transport links, and a range of shopping like no other.

Birmingham city centre extends from the Birmingham Children’s Hospital in the north to Grand Central and Birmingham New Street station in the south.

Here, you can find Colmore Row, St Phillip’s Cathedral, Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery, Paradise and Victoria Square, as well as countless pubs, bars, restaurants and nightclubs.

Hotels in Birmingham City Centre

As well as all that, there are many places for you to stay over in Birmingham city centre. With the Macdonald Burlington Hotel, Holiday Inns, and Staying Cool (a unique venue atop the Rotunda building) amongst the hotels in the city centre, you don’t have to limit your visit to just one day.

How far is Birmingham City Centre from the airport?

Birmingham city centre is not far from Birmingham Airport, and you can easily get to one from the other.

Get the train from Birmingham Airport to Birmingham city centre

One of the best ways to get from arrivals to the centre is via the Air-Rail Link, which is a free, above-ground train shuttle.

The Air-Rail Link connects the airport directly to Birmingham International Railway station. From there, trains run to Birmingham New Street station multiple times per hour and take about ten minutes.

Get the bus from Birmingham Airport to Birmingham city centre

The National Express X1 route includes bus stops around Birmingham Airport and the NEC and stops there every 15-30 minutes. You can take the route either towards Birmingham city centre or towards Coventry.

In Birmingham, the bus stops at Bordesley Rail Station, Adderley Street, Birmingham Coach Station, Park Street next to St Martins Church, and Moor Street next to the unmissable Selfridges building.

This bus route can take around 40 minutes to get from the airport to the city centre, although this might vary considerably during peak traffic hours, so it is always important to plan ahead.
