Commonwealth Games 2022
After a couple of difficult years for the entire world, we know the Commonwealth Games will bring a must-needed sense of anticipation, excitement and pride to Birmingham. The games have been taking place every four years since 1930, with professionals and athletes from across all Commonwealth nations competing in a range of sports and disciplines. The games include a huge variety of sports from diving and wrestling, table tennis and judo. This exciting event is scheduled to take place between Thursday 28th July to Monday 8th August 2022 with events across a number of stadiums and locations in Birmingham.
Alexander Stadium
Alexander Stadium, less than 20 minutes by car or 30 minutes by public transport from PREMIER SUITES Birmingham, will be a pivotal part of the Birmingham 2022 Games. Work has already begun to improve and enhance the stadium in preparation for the games. The stadium will be fully modernised with a post-Games permanent capacity of 20,000, a huge increase from the current 12,700. The stadium is already an internationally renowned athletics venue and home to UK Athletics and the improvements will further Birmingham’s reputation as the ‘City of Running’. Facilities include a gym, a champion athletics track and a high-performance centre, home to the world-famous Birchfield Harriers Athletics Club.
