BBC Radio WM Celebrates Metal in the Midlands

Random draw closed

Join BBC Radio WM at Birmingham Town Hall for a night celebrating the influence of Black Sabbath and heavy metal in the Midlands. 

The event is planned to coincide with Black Sabbath’s much-anticipated ‘Back to the Beginning’ final show at Villa Park, and will look back at the rich heritage of the genre across the decades in the Midlands as well as looking to the future of metal. 

The evening will include performances from rising stars CHERRYDEAD, GANS, and Meatdripper, who all hail from across the West Midlands, as well as a panel discussion with industry experts.

Tickets will be allocated by random draw.

You can register at any time until 11.55pm on Friday 6 June.

You can apply for a maximum of two tickets.

Good luck!
