Street art in Birmingham

Map of street art in Birmingham (United Kingdom)

Birmingham's street art scene spans over forty years, with early connections to New York's graffiti culture. A turning point came in 2014 with the City of Colours festival, which transformed disused industrial warehouses into open-air galleries and established Digbeth as the city's creative hub.

Digbeth, a former industrial district turned creative quarter, is the heart of the scene, with murals lining Gibb Street, Floodgate Street, Heath Mill Lane, and Lower Trinity Street. The Jewellery Quarter also gained prominence as an art destination, notably after a Banksy mural on homelessness appeared on one of its walls.

Among the most recognized local artists are Annatomix, known for detailed figurative work, Gent48 for photorealistic compositions, and Title, a veteran of the graffiti scene with decades of work across the city. The High-Vis Festival is the annual highlight, drawing international muralists to Digbeth alongside local talent. A 4-kilometer walking tour from Moor Street station provides a structured route through the district's key works.
