Secret Space Digbeth
Birmingham
At a glance
Secret Space Digbeth is a licensed, multi-purpose events venue in Birmingham, with four rooms that can be used for a changing programme of public events, private hires and creative projects. The venue is shaped less like a single-purpose restaurant and more like an adaptable setting for gatherings, performances, exhibitions and productions.
Its event history and programming have included boxing and MMA, bingo, vintage clothing, craft and flea markets, craft beer festivals, exhibitions, opera and music video work. That range gives the space an event-led character, with the atmosphere and audience changing according to what is taking place. One visit may centre on a market or exhibition, while another may involve live entertainment, filming or a specialist event.
The four-room layout allows the venue to accommodate different formats and uses. It is suitable for organisers looking for an event space, as well as production teams seeking a location for filming. The rooms can support both audience-facing events and more distinctive temporary installations, reflected by the variety of activities associated with the venue.
Food is not the central focus, and Secret Space Digbeth does not present itself around a fixed cuisine or permanent restaurant menu. Its appeal lies in the flexibility of the setting and the variety of events hosted there. Refreshments may form part of individual events, but arrangements depend on the specific programme.
The venue suits visitors interested in unusual event formats, independent markets, exhibitions, performance, music-related activity and temporary cultural projects. It can also work for organisers planning a private event or film hire, with the four-room arrangement offering scope for different layouts and uses. Since the programme changes, the experience is best understood through the individual event rather than a fixed weekly format.
Located on River Street in Digbeth, Secret Space has a practical, adaptable identity built around events and venue hire. Its licensing, multiple rooms and varied past uses make it a setting for organisers, creative teams, market traders, performers and audiences looking for something beyond a standard nightlife or dining venue.
