The best time to explore Birmingham is from the spring season through to the autumn season (April – October), although, make sure to avoid the months of July and August, which fall in the peak tourist season. The temperatures during this period range from cool to warm (between 12°C and 18°C). Since these months sit just outside of peak tourist season, you’ll get better availability and more affordable hotel rates. If you’re set on saving, visit Birmingham during the winter (December – February). The temperatures rarely go below zero, although, snowfall is a common occurrence during these months, especially from January to February. If you decide to visit during this period, make sure to bring more winter wear.
