The Birmingham Tattoo 2018 is a yearly event that takes place in the city of Birmingham at the NIA Centre. The show features thousands of bands and several performers, belonging to various parts of the world that put up magnificent and enjoyable performances for a good three hours. The most notable shows include the Field Gun Competition, the Town Crier and the Field Dog Display. The event ends with the Grand Finale which seems to be getting more spectacular and better year after year.
The main show takes place at the night so the morning is free for many travellers who show up in the city a night before. Most of these tourists spend the morning on the day of the show by exploring the Frankfurt Christmas Market, which is considered to be the biggest market in the United Kingdom.
The Frankfurt Christmas Market features traditional stores that put out beautiful toys on display, nanny of which are handmade and make the perfect souvenirs to take back home. You can even buy original jewellery, crafted goods, Christmas decorations and presents. The market also hosts many food stalls that tasty sausages grilled over a medium flame, pretzels, gingerbread, Gluhwein and marzipan sweets. German beer is a deliciously popular beverage at the market.
Other than the Frankfurt Christmas Market, you can even spend time at the Westfield Merry Hill, the fifth biggest shopping arena in the country.
