The UK’s largest student-run festival is back for its 12th year, taking place at the Vale Village and promising to be bigger than ever. The day-long festival features live music, comedy and performing arts, as well as street food. This year, headliners include Adam Barnes, Charlie and The Funk Factory, Boat To Row and Gareth Icke, plus many more exciting acts who will be performing over the various stages at The Vale offering up house, disco, acoustic, indie, rock and reggae. Open to both students and non-students alike, you don’t have to be studying at the University of Birmingham to enjoy what is always an excellent start to the summer.
