Birmingham Town Hall is a neoclassical concert hall and civic building located in Victoria Square, Birmingham, England. Designed by architect Joseph Aloysius Hansom and opened in 1834, it was one of the first examples of a public building constructed in the Greek Revival style in England.

The hall has been used for a variety of functions, including as a venue for political meetings, as a court of law, and as a place for public lectures. However, it is best known as a concert venue, having hosted performances by many famous musicians, including Charles Dickens, Mendelssohn, Wagner, and Paderewski.

The building underwent a major renovation in the 1990s, during which the original acoustics were restored, and new facilities were added. Today, it continues to be a popular venue for classical music concerts and other cultural events, as well as a tourist attraction in its own right.

The design of Birmingham Town Hall is notable for its large Corinthian columns, which support a pedimented facade. The interior features a large central hall, with galleries on either side, and a grand staircase leading up to the first-floor level. The hall is renowned for its excellent acoustics, and the interior decoration includes elaborate stucco work, marble statues, and a large chandelier.
