THSH The Night Owl: Northern Soul Flash Mob at Great Western Arcade
The Night Owl & Town Hall and Symphony Hall took part in a Northern Soul Flash mob in conjunction with the The Big Birmingham Soul Night at Great Western Arcade on 27th Jan 2018.
A taster for the upcoming The Big Birmingham Soul Night event at Town Hall, Birmingham in February 2018.
Only just over two years old, the intimate The Night Owl has become renowned as the UK’s premier soul & retro club. Last April they teamed up with the prestigious Town Hall for the biggest soul night Birmingham has seen in over 30 years.
The Big Birmingham Soul Night harked back to soul nights of the 60s and 70s, was programmed by The Night Owl and held at Town Hall, Birmingham. This beautiful listed building boasts a giant wooden floor, perfect for Northern Soul and Mod style dancing, with an elegant balcony for those who would prefer to just relax and enjoy the dancing below. There was also a smaller second room of music, with its own bar and seating.
The launch event was a big hit, reaching capacity by 11pm, with happy faces and both rooms 1 and 2 full of people dancing to good soul music. Feedback from the event was incredible, with original Northern Soul DJs Colin Curtis and PEP calling it ‘the best soul night in Birmingham’, finally putting the city on the map for Northern Soul.
Confirmed to head up this evening is legendary DJ Soul Sam who has been DJing in soul clubs since 1968. His favourite records include Joseph Webster’sMy Love Is So Strong and The Velvelettes’ These Things Will Keep Me Loving You.

Visiting Birmingham Brindley Place German
Welcome to Visiting Birmingham.
Als ich zum ersten Mal den Brindleyplace betrat, war ich fasziniert. Eine schoene Umgebung nahegelegen der Broadstreet und dem Kanal. Der Brindleyplace ist ein sehr gemischter Ort, von verschiedenen Gebaeuden. Mitten im Herzen des Brindleyplace ist ein schoener grosser Brunnen mit Fontaenen. Am Brindleyplace sind einige Pubs und Restaurants, der nahegelegene Ikon Bookshop und das Sea Life Centre. Dies ist ein guter Ort, um etwas Zeit am Kanal zu verbringen oder um einen schoenen Spaziergang zu geniessen, nicht nur tagsuber, den auch in der Nacht ist es eine tolle Umgebung. Der Brindleyplace ist sehr belebt von verschiedenen Menschen; Ortansaessige, aber auch Touristen, durch das Sea Life Centre. An manchen Tagen ist dort ein Markt, auf dem man diverse Dinge kaufen kann.

If you're planning an adventure to the UK, depending on your nationality and your reason for visiting, you may need to organise a visa.
If you're an American, Canadian or Australian tourist, you'll be able to travel visa-free throughout the UK, providing you have a valid passport and your reason for visiting meets the immigration rules (link is external).
Citizens from some South American and Caribbean countries as well as Japan are also able to travel visa-free around the UK.
European Union citizens, non-EU member states of the EEA (Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland), Switzerland, and members of the Overseas Countries and Territories (OCT) do not need a visa to enter the UK.
If you have any further visa questions visit the official UK government website.
