The best things to do in Birmingham on a sunny day, according to locals

Things are starting to heat up as we move closer to the summertime, and while there’s definitely been a few ups and downs - as it stands - it looks as though we’re going to see bright skies ahead of us. So we ask Brummies what they like to get up to on a sunny day.

You can see all the comments in the video at the top of this story, or read a selection below. Do let us know what you like to do on a sunny day too.

Brian says: “I like just a wander, around Birmingham itself. This is an area around the Canal, which is nice to wander. There’s also some greenery in Birmingham. I’m trying to think of the name of one of the parks I went to a long time ago but I can’t. It’s got everything you know, hot day cold day doesn’t really matter. You can wander around Birmingham and really enjoy yourself.”

Helen says: “So I like to go walking on the canal side. But then I also like coming to visit the Bullring, like here, I am going to the library - taking my friends with me to show them around the place. I like to do a bit of shopping and I like to go to walk through the park.”

Joanne says: “I love Birmingham. It’s my city and although the sun’s not out as much as it could be today, I just love walking through the - what do we call them? The squares. Just walk through Victoria Square. And it’s just lovely to see this city full of so many people. It’s such a vibrant city. I’m just on my way to the Ikon gallery now actually, but there’s nothing better than seeing the children dancing in the fountains when the sun shining”
