Southbound Food Festival
Hamilton
T here’s fun to be had all year long in Birmingham, from
captured hearts across the nation: The score blends hip-hip, R&B, pop, and show tunes in a sung-and- rapped style of biography unlike anything else you’ve ever heard. If you appreciate good Southern cooking, Southbound Food Festival is an absolute must— particularly their Southern Living Food & Fire live-fire tasting event featuring top chefs and pitmasters, music, chef demos, and more. OCTOBER Kick off the fall festivities with a visit to a nearby pumpkin patch . Pick out the perfect pumpkin, take a hayride to the corn maze, meet farm animals, and snack on apple- and
pumpkin-flavored goodies!
Be sure to head downtown for the 54th Annual Greek Festival . There’s nothing like eating an authentic gyro or baklava while experiencing live music and traditional dancing! Other fun activities include Vestavia Hills’ Community Night Out (Oct. 1), with free food, bouncy houses, and more, Taste of Hoover (Oct. 15), and Mountain Brook’s Annual Halloween Parade (Oct. 31). NOVEMBER Celebrate the Day of the Dead at Día de los Muertos Número 24 (Nov. 2) with free arts activities for all ages, an artist market, live music, traditional dance, food, and more. Then shop ’till you drop at Christmas
Broadway shows and food festivals to annual holiday celebrations and more. Be on the lookout for these local events happening throughout the next year! SEPTEMBER There’s just something special about Saturdays in the South… Whether you’re headed to a football game at UAB, Samford, Alabama, or down I-65 on the Plains, the energy is almost palpable and the tailgating is next level. You won’t want to miss Hamilton , Broadway in Birmingham’s iconic start to the season from September 22–27. There’s a reason this musical has

Day of the Dead
Glow Wild
Village Festival (Nov. 4–8). It has everything from soup mixes and home decor to boutique clothing and photos with Santa! Moss Rock Festival (Nov. 7–8) is a must-visit art fest, with food, a beer garden, and all kinds of unique art displays. Plus, Mamma Mia! is heading to the BJCC (Nov. 17–22), and this jukebox musical will make you smile, laugh, and want to sing along to the hit songs by ABBA. If you’re a Christmas-before- Thanksgiving shopper, head to Homewood’s Christmas Open House (Nov. 5). You’ll also want to go to the 79th Annual National Veterans Day Parade (Nov. 11). DECEMBER It’s the most wonderful (and hectic) time of the year—to get your family in the festive spirit, go look at Birmingham Zoo’s
animal lanterns at Glow Wild . Enjoy a taste of nostalgia at the Alabama Ballet’s performance of The Nutcracker (Dec. 12–22) or by watching a Christmas classic at Alabama Theatre’s Holiday Film Series . Shop for Christmas gifts at all of the Christmas Open House events , including in English Village, Mountain Brook Village, Crestline Village, and more. Red Mountain Theatre’s Holiday Spectacular is always a hit, with dance numbers to classic carols to modern holiday hits (Dec. 4–20), as is Alabama Symphony Orchestra’s Sleigh Bell & Symphony: A Holiday Classic (Dec. 1). JANUARY (2027) Just because it’s cold outside does not mean there aren’t plenty of fun things to do! Use our indoor play guide to get inspired. Visit the free Birmingham Museum
of Art , experiment with hands-on STEM experiments at McWane Science Center , run around at Activate , or even a stop in to your local library for story time . You can also celebrate MLK Day by visiting Birmingham Civil Rights Institute . FEBRUARY If you love love, you’ll want to go see the Broadway production of The Sound of Music (Feb. 2–7). You’ll be happily “Trapped” in this romantic tale of Maria and the von Trapp family! If you’re a sports fan, head to a UAB or Samford basketball game or gymnastics meet . There are also always special Valentine’s Day events so you can celebrate with your spouse. And while Birmingham is no New Orleans, you’ll find a few Mardi Gras celebrations scattered throughout the city.

St. Elias Lebanese Festival
MARCH Taste and see that you never want to miss the Taste of Homewood , usually mid-month, or any of the other nearby cities’ Taste events! Speaking of food, The Exceptional Foundation’s Annual Chili Cookoff is iconic, with over 14,000 attendees each year enjoying live music, the kids’ zone, and all the chili they can eat (in early March)! Birmingham Parent Magazine ’s free Exceptional Lives Expo is also in March, the perfect place to explore local resources, connect with support groups, and enjoy interactive activities designed for individuals with special needs. Hip hip hurray, Easter is on its way (Mar. 28)! Make sure to attend one of the dozens of egg hunts and take your picture with the Easter Bunny. And
you can’t forget the St. Patrick’s Day celebrations or Cottontail’s Village Festival , Christmas Village’s smaller sister (Mar. 5–7). You’ll want to stop by the Cherry Blossoms Festival at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens in late March. APRIL Spring has arrived, and it’s brought with it all kinds of fabulous festivals! Festa Italiana (Apr. 10) is a taste of Italy in Birmingham, with Italian food, dancing, a grape stomping competition, and more. The St. Elias Lebanese Food Festival (Apr. 16–17) is also a can’t miss—be sure to watch the traditional dancing and eat a meat pie! The Homewood Block Party , usually in late-April, is also a hoot, with music, food, beverages, and family-
friendly activities for all ages (like bouncy houses!). Magic City Art Connection is a three-day arts festival featuring juried fine artists, hands-on art workshops for kids, and live music and dance performances (Apr. 23–25). Corks & Chefs: A Taste of Birmingham is at the heart of it all, serving up the best food the city has to offer. If you love a heart-tugging Nicholas Sparks romance, be sure to see the Broadway show The Notebook (Apr. 6–11). Everything you love about The Notebook comes to life: the rain, the tear-inducing tenderness, the characters, and more. MAY Be sure to check out all of the special Mother’s Day events happening around town (May 9). For Memorial Day, you’ll want to stay in town so you can

JUNE June brings a mix of culture, entertainment, and summer fun to Birmingham, with Father’s Day celebrations , Juneteenth events honoring freedom and heritage, and the Broadway hit The Book of Mormon at the BJCC Concert Hall (June 15–20).
Families and friends can also enjoy outdoor movie series under the stars and gather around the fire for S’mores & Pours , an evening of sweet treats, drinks, and community (early June). JULY It wouldn’t be July without fireworks, and Thunder on the Mountain is Alabama’s largest and most spectacular annual
Hoover, Vestavia, Chelsea, Trussville, and more. If you’re a hunter, the annual World Deer Expo (July 17–19) was made for you—but if you prefer musicals, you’ll need to go see Red Mountain Theatre’s heart-warming production of Annie (June 11–July 11). AUGUST August in Birmingham wraps up summer with film, community, and back-to-school fun. One highlight is the Sidewalk Film Festival , which showcases independent films, filmmaker panels, and special screenings downtown. Families can also enjoy back-to-school bashes , local splash pads , Birmingham Legion FC soccer matches , concerts at Coca-Cola Amphitheater, and Birmingham Baron baseball games , as the new school year begins.
Independence Day fireworks display.
Keep an eye out for Vulcan’s shining moment from under the glow of fireworks
