Events in Solihull From 11th May – 17th May 2026

Home · Events in Solihull This Week

You can find a varied lineup of events across Solihull this week, covering music, social gatherings, and community moments. Evening options include live sets at venues near Solihull Railway Station, with some events taking place at larger hubs like Hare and Hounds Kings Heath, a short drive from the town centre. There’s also a chance to join a themed dinner, such as the Secret Supper Club at Knowle Fish Bar, or catch a contemporary dance performance at Solihull College. For families, activities like the baby rave at Hare and Hounds Kings Heath provide child-friendly entertainment, with playgrounds and green spaces available for downtime. The town’s history as a medieval market from 1242 and its role in the creation of Land Rover offer a local thread, while connectivity via the M42 and Air-Rail Link makes it easier to reach venues. Be mindful of parking shortages near the Touchwood Shopping Centre and the town centre. The Sprint Bus Rapid Transit Network offers access, though some green space loss has occurred due to the project. Note that Hobs Moat Castle ruins remain inaccessible. Check the listings below for details.
