We are delighted to confirm that Edgbaston Stadium has been shortlisted for Venue of the Year at Birmingham Awards 2017. After receiving over 500 applications, the shortlist of finalists was announced for the most prestigious awards Birmingham has to offer.
The Birmingham Awards present a unique opportunity to showcase the very best of Birmingham’s talent, from the biggest business to charities and the brightest young achiever to tech whizzes. The last few years have been a smashing success and this year has seen an even higher volume of hopeful applicants vying for best of Brum titles.
It’s great to see this event celebrating the best in the city and we hope that the Club’s Members, supporters and our many conference & events clients can support our campaign to be crowned as the Venue of the Year.
