Peaky Blinders Festival coming to Birmingham

A ‘Peaky Blinders’ festival is coming to Birmingham in September.
The show’s creator Steven Knight has co-curated ‘The Legitimate Peaky Blinders Festival’ which will feature a Q&A with him, appearances by cast members and other special guests and live music.
Announcing the event, Steven said: "We will be celebrating in Birmingham style and everyone from around the world is invited.
"Expect the unexpected, expect 1919 to come crashing into 2019 and, be assured, everything is officially by order of the Peaky Blinders…"
The festival will take place on September 14 and September 15 and it will celebrate the impact the BBC drama has had on TV viewers across the world.
Festival goers can expect immersive theatre, live music, fashion inspired by the show, cinema showings, a museum, food, drinks, and way more.
Primal Scream, Anna Calvi and Slaves will all be performing live and The Streets star Mike Skinner will be playing a special DJ set on the two days.
Confirming the event, the Lord Mayor of Birmingham, Councillor Mohammed Azim, said: "I am so excited that this amazing ‘Peaky Blinders’ festival is being hosted here in our great city as a tribute to the polished BBC series, set on the streets of post-war Birmingham, which has captivated audiences worldwide.
"The show has brought Birmingham into the spotlight; gripping and beautifully shot, it has gained national attention and I am particularly pleased to hear that ‘Peaky Blinders’ is coming home."
‘Peaky Blinders’ boasts an incredible cast which includes the likes of Cillian Murphy, Helen McCrory, Joe Cole and Tom Hardy and follows the exploits of the Shelby crime family in 20th century Birmingham.
The drama – which will be moving from BBC Two to BBC One when series five airs – has won a host of awards since it began including the Best Drama Series prize at the BAFTA Television Awards.
Tickets for ‘The Legitimate Peaky Blinders Festival’ go on sale at Aegpresents.co.uk/peakyblinders from 10am on August 9.
