The visitor economy in the West Midlands is set to be boosted by a host of festival sites springing up across the region as part of this summer's Commonwealth Games.
Musical performances, live sport on big screens and other cultural events will be hosted at the seven separate neighbourhood sites in Birmingham and two hubs in the city centre.
Victoria Square and Smithfield will bring people together for the duration of the games, which start on July 28, hosting live music in partnership with organisations such as Amplify Sounds, B:Music and VNS Productions as well as DJs, live performances and dance.
