Brum Transport Fest will take place in Birmingham on Friday 18 and Saturday 19 September 2026. The festival is listed for the West Midlands Region and is being brought to the city by Colmore Life.

The event is aimed at people interested in a transport-themed addition to Birmingham’s September calendar. Visit Birmingham Events has confirmed the two dates, but an exact venue, admission price and booking arrangements have not yet been published.

Two September dates are confirmed

The festival is scheduled across two consecutive days, allowing prospective visitors to reserve either the Friday or Saturday while they wait for the remaining arrangements.

Birmingham is identified as the host city, with “West Midlands Region” shown as the venue name in the listing. That establishes the broad destination but does not provide a building, site or street address. Visitors should not treat the regional label as a sufficiently precise location for planning a journey.

Brum Transport Fest heads to Birmingham for two days: what residents need to know

Brum Transport Fest sits within Birmingham’s early-autumn events calendar. Earlier in the same month, the city is also due to host the Moseley Folk and Arts Festival from 4 to 6 September.

What has been announced about the festival

The source introduces Brum Transport Fest with the invitation to “fasten your seatbelts”, establishing transport as its central theme. Colmore Life is named as the organiser.

No programme or individual highlights are identified in the available information. It is therefore not yet clear whether the festival will focus on particular vehicles, transport history or another part of the subject. Displays, activities, performers and participating organisations also remain unconfirmed.

For readers deciding whether the event suits them, the transport theme and two-day format are currently the main indicators. More detailed programme information will be needed before visitors can judge which day, if either, best matches their interests.

Practical details to check before travelling

The current listing does not state opening or closing times, an exact venue address, admission prices or whether advance booking will be required. It also provides no transport directions, accessibility information, or details of food and stalls.

Those omissions mean that the dates can be placed in a diary, but a journey should not yet be finalised. Prospective visitors should check the Visit Birmingham Events listing for updates from the source before travelling, particularly for the precise location, entry arrangements and operating times.
