Digbeth Community Town Hall Gathering
Wednesday, 30 September 2026
6 – 8pm
Come, chat, share ideas, and make Digbeth an even better place together!
In line with Companion Culture: Four Actions for Digbeth ACTION #1.1 LOOK OUT FOR EACH OTHER, the new Digbeth Cultural Consortium invites you to the first Digbeth Community Town Hall event.
We hope the Digbeth Community Town Hall meetings will become regular relaxed events that enable people to be more connected, find allies and share knowledge and collectively build a diverse, cross-sector community who can advocate for culture and push for change.
Anyone with a stake in Digbeth is invited, so come along, bring issues forward, share ideas, knowledge and plans, and most importantly bring something tasty to share as part of a delicious Digbeth potluck feast.
