My wife and I had the best music experience when we attended a show featuring Robert Plant and the Band of Joy at Birmingham Symphony Hall on the 05/11/23. The facilities are excellent and this concert a musical treat. Robert Plant has the most beautiful voice and the music was unbelievably spectacular and moving. Robert Plant has reinvented himself and presents a flawless performance. Love Symphony Hall and have loved Robert Plant for most of my life. Many thanks to both. What a evening!

“Champagne Experience”. Went to see Stewart Lee yesterday - excellent as always. Splashed out, when booking, for a couple of glasses of champagne pre-performance. Warmly welcomed on arrival and the waiter said they’d run out of mini-bottles and asked would I mind a full bottle of champagne all to myself, with ‘free’ bar snacks. They also put it in the chiller for me to polish off during the interval. 5 stars, thanks…!

Lovely venue, booked to see Rick Wakeman here rather than nearer my home in London, spoiled only by the nightmare of getting in and out of Birmingham. Staff friendly, beers are very nice, and queueing minimal, venue is close to restaurants and close to Q car park. Seats a little hard , but sound is good, and great views of the stage no matter where you are sat. Would consider going again, but will check what roadworks are going on in the city.

My first trip to the Birmingham Symphony hall with family who really like it. The area around is fascinating, with the striking library building nearby. It was a Saturday night and the town centre is a really buzzing lively place. The Symphony Hall itself is beautiful. Very clean and modern designs, pristine toilets and plenty of staff who were friendly enough. We had seats in ‘the ledge’ which were separate chairs rather than in a row so no standing up to let people in and out. It was a side view which is not quite as good as being in front, but comfortable. An easy 10-15 min walk back to New Street and a nice night out!

One of the best theatre visits of my life! Show: Giovanni, Lauren and cast including Birmingham’s own Jamie delivered a sensational show. The dancing talent is just astounding! Loved every minute!! Seats: great view from anywhere in stalls. It’s a very large venue with multiple levels but the layout suggests a good view. Bar: organised. Fair range of drinks. Toilets: not enough women’s! Fun fact: theatre is inside the conference centre so food & drink available all day - don’t have to wait for the theatre to open.

I’m a regular at Symphony Hall but the Classic FM Hall of Fame with Michael Seal and Tessa Lark on 19 April was ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! How lucky and lovely to have John Suchet introducing each piece and the awesome orchestra getting up for our applause every time. It was a night to remember forever, I am booking every single one now. Especially when Michael Seal literally jumped off the conductor’s podium for that last note of Grieg’s In the Hall of the Mountain King!! Loved that! Kudos for the program organisers, great mix of calm, contemplative and fun. Best part was seeing the faces of teenagers light up at the John Williams’ famous tunes. To finish with Holst’s Jupiter just brought me to euphoric tears. Great night, thank you CBSO!

Booking tickets online was easy and email information ahead of the show was good. Friendly staff on the doors/checking tickets, however one of the bar staff who served us was rude and very unfriendly. Food & drinks were expensive at £15 just for bottled water, a coffee, some crisps and small pack of biscuits! Decent amount of toilets, but the ladies’ were very tightly packed which made it difficult to manoeuvre around in there and access the hand dryers. We were very pleased with the view from our seats, and the 18-30 tickets were amazing value. However, the individual seats where we sat were fitted, which meant they were very tight if you had large hips/thighs so that was uncomfortable. Aside from that, the show was really good! We attended May the Fourth - A Star Wars Celebration. It was great to hear iconic pieces of music from the world-famous films, played by the extremely talented orchestra and led by an animated conductor. Some cameos from Star Wars characters too. My Mum and brother especially loved the experience as they are lifelong Star Wars fans! It was a shame there were no posters displayed to promote or indicate what the event was as that would have added to the excitement. Felt rushed after the show as staff kept trying to usher us out/saying that we needed to leave because they were closing. We had only popped to the toilets briefly on the way out, so I found this attitude from the staff to be rude, unnecessary and inhospitable! This left a sour taste at the end of a lovely evening. Would definitely return to this venue, however I would hope for more polite staff to be working there on any future visits!

We went to see Alfie Boe and had the Champagne Experience. We thought that it was good value for money and also very enjoyable. The staff weee friendly and helpful and added to the experience. It was in a separate room and perhaps a little more could be done in terms of food or better snacks. It would increase the price but I do believe it would be an improvement

Attended the Hans Zimmer concert by the CBSO. An excellent evening. Great venue. Plenty of staff to assist. Even thoug we are quite a distance away, our second concert here. Will monitor whats on in the future.
