Concerts and Recitals
at St Alban the Martyr
There are normally a number of concerts and recitals at St Alban the Martyr throughout the year.
Our programme is gradually resetablishing after the disruption caused by Covid-19.
Some concerts are given by members of the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire and usually admission is free (with an optional retiring collection for the church).
We usually serve tea and coffee after these events in our adjacent church hall, St Patrick's Room.
