Live music lovers, this one’s for you. Grassroots Festival is returning to Birmingham’s The Night Owl on Sunday 3rd May, after its sell out year in 2025 – you can expect a full day of fresh sounds, big energy, and the future of music.
Running from 2PM to 11PM, the one-day festival will showcase 18+ rising brummie acts across two stages, giving a spotlight to the artists and venues that keep the live scene thriving.
Shannon Davies, founder, said “I’m so excited to bring this event back to Birmingham for 2026 – I never expected the love and support we received in 2025. The future of live music relies on everyone supporting independent venues, artists and crew – I’m looking forward to bringing over 18 acts down to Digbeth and I hope to see you there.”
Expect new favourites, unforgettable sets, and a crowd that truly backs grassroots music. Add street food and great vibes into the mix, and you’ve got the perfect Sunday session.
