About Birmingham

Birmingham is a major city in England's West Midlands and a centre for business, manufacturing, education and conferences, with the NEC hosting large exhibitions throughout the year. Once at the heart of the Industrial Revolution, it is known for its canal network, the Bullring shopping centre and its varied food scene.

The UK uses Greenwich Mean Time (UTC+0) in winter and British Summer Time (UTC+1) when the clocks go forward. Birmingham shares its time with London, Edinburgh and Dublin. The UK is one hour behind most of continental Europe all year, and five hours ahead of New York except during the short periods when the two countries change their clocks on different dates.
