Event information

Come along to Day 2 of Beatles Fest 2024 and help us celebrate the 61st Anniversary of The Beatles Birmingham debut at the now sadly burnt down Ritz Ballroom in King's Heath, Birmingham. Originally booked to appear at the Ritz on 11 January 1963, The Beatles were prevented from reaching the venue by blizzard like conditions so the gig had to be re-arranged for 15 February. But the owners Ma & Pa Regan were not unhappy. They persuaded Brian Epstein not to up their fee even though "Please Please Me" was now No.1 in the charts!
Top local musicians will play their favourite Beatles songs in a variety of styles at a 3 hour session.
Expect to hear among others the acoustic duo Acoustica, the jazz soul of Blue Silk, the roots rock of Mr Apollo and solo guitarist Peters plays Lennon.
Unreserved all seated venue. Book now as the event is likely to sell!
Licensed Bar and Food. Free Car park whose entrance is off Vicarage Road
This is Day 2 of a mini festival that kicks off with a Saturday evening concert by top tribute band The Beatles Sound at Kings Heath Cricket and Sports Club. Separate Tickets are available from
