Best Events in March

Baking fever has swept the nation over the past few years, and now it's Birmingham's turn to get a slice of the action. The Big Birmingham Bake will be setting up camp on Floodgate Street, ready to welcome 12 eager pairs of wannabe Mary Berrys. You'll be given 90 minutes to create your own masterpiece, before a panel of judges crowns their winner.

Taking place on the last Sunday of March, don't miss out on the chance to treat mum to something really good. From fancy restaurants to quirky afternoon teas, say it with more than just a last minute card this year.

Head down to Bierkeller where the Reggae Brunch kicks off every month with non-stop reggae, soca, calypso, bashment and more, not to mention tasty Jamaican-inspired grub and bottomless cocktails.

Wanted to get familiar with the art of craft beer, and drink it all the same? Then why not snatch up tickets to the Birmingham Brewery Tours where you'll not only enjoy tasters aplenty, you'll learn how to the best in the business go from ingredients to pint.

This March, it's time to shake things up with a trip to 52 Gas Street. Not only is the cocktail bar offering you the chance to try a cocktail masterclass with Havana, but there's also skills to be learnt and shots to be had.

Located in the heart of the city centre, this comedy club is the perfect spot for a little laughter. Often frequented by local talent and some of the country's most famous personalities, Cherry Red's should be on your radar if it's a fun night out that you're after.
