The venue you choose for your event is as important as wearing the right pair of shoes - despite all of the time and effort spent on selecting the perfect outfit for a special occasion, all people will remember is the battered old boots you wore! Our venues complement your personality and give your event the profile it deserves, lifting it from ordinary to extraordinary! We offer a wide variety of spaces to choose from that are as individual as you are. The UVB portfolio includes auditoria presenting huge dramatic and creative possibilities, a spectacular five-storeys high rotunda, and a beautiful roof terrace with panoramic views across the city. For slightly more traditional requirements, we present an array of suites and rooms complete with all of the audio-visual technology you could ask for but set within architecturally splendid buildings with impressive views. Make the decision to transform your future events from mundane to magnificent – choose Unique Venues Birmingham.

Nestled adjacent to the library's in-house Art Gallery and offering enchanting views over the Book Rotunda's famous balconies, The Highlight is an idyllic space for intimate drinks receptions.
Here, art and literature merge seamlessly, creating an ambiance that's both sophisticated and culturally enriched. The Art Gallery's treasures serve as a backdrop for your gathering, infusing creativity into every moment. As you sip cocktails and engage in conversations, the surroundings inspire thoughtful reflection and meaningful connections.

    Had a great time at O’Neill’s. The cocktails and food were delicious. Liv was amazing at serving us, she had great knowledge of the drinks and recommended her favourites. Thorn was lovely and very prompt and helpful in sorting out the darts for us, we had so much fun. I’ll definitely be coming back to O’Neill’s 😍

    I went here to watch football and have a couple of drinks with my partner whilst our young son had a bite to eat. We were happy with the atmosphere and the service was fast even though it was really busy. We ordered via the qr code and drinks came quickly. Our son’s food was a very good portion size for a kids meal and tasted really nice. Lastly, the drinks and meals are priced very reasonably.

    Really wish I had taken a picture of the food... It was amazing, so tasty, looked amazing on the plate and ate it all. Fish & chips and smothered chicken with lovely coleslaw. Compliments to the chef. Best pub meal we've had in ages.
