We have officially moved to the Irish Centre, located in Kings Heath
Birmingham Irish • November 20, 2025
The grand opening of the new BIA offices was a truly unforgettable occasion, and we are delighted to say it was an incredible success from start to finish.
The energy on the day was full of excitement, pride, and community spirit as visitors explored the newly opened spaces and helped us celebrate this important new chapter. With a fantastic turnout and unwavering support from everyone who attended, the event exceeded all expectations and marked a wonderful beginning for what lies ahead.
Guests also got the chance to have a look around Eileen’s Wellbeing Centre, a warm, supportive space created for individuals and families affected by dementia.

The dedication of our staff and volunteers ensured that everything ran smoothly, making the occasion one to remember.
As we continue to grow, we want to ensure the community has clear information about our organisations. The Irish Centre and the Birmingham Irish Association are separate entities, each with its own services, programmes, and responsibilities. While we work alongside one another within the community, we operate independently.
We would also like to clarify that all function room enquiries should be directed to the Irish Centre, and not the Birmingham Irish Association. If you wish to book or enquire about function space, please contact: cath@irishcentrebirmingham.co.uk
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us for the grand opening and helped make it such a memorable and positive celebration.
We look forward to welcoming you back for future events and continuing to build a strong, vibrant community together.
