Bus
West Midlands travel are the main bus operators around Birmingham. They offer fairly single fares (no returns). Best buys are ‘Daysavers’ for £3 which give unlimited travel for a day (not including nightbus service) or if there is a group of you, you can purchase a ‘Daysaver5′ for £5, offering unlimited travel for 5 people for a day (cheaper than 2 Day Savers!).

Taxi
There are loads of private hire companies around Birmingham, but these must be pre-booked. They are not allowed to make pick-ups on the street.
Black cabs can be flagged down anywhere, and there are a number of taxi ranks around the city. There is a taxi rank around the corner from the venue just below the Mc Donalds on the ramp which operates around the clock.
