About

The UK thrives on its diversity, and at its heart are over 1.6 million British Pakistanis, forming the nation’s second-largest ethnic minority. This vibrant community enriches every aspect of British life, yet their profound contributions in arts, culture, heritage and sport often remain unsung on a national stage.

After an unforgettable first year, Spirit of Pakistan is back with more events, more partners and more venues across Birmingham than ever before

Prepare for Spirit of Pakistan, a groundbreaking, fourteen-day national celebration from August 1st to 15th. While designed to attract audiences from across the UK, all our events will be proudly hosted in Birmingham. As a central hub with the UK’s second-largest Pakistani community, Birmingham is the perfect place to showcase the incredible talent, rich traditions, deep heritage, and spirited dynamism of British Pakistanis.

We’re building a unique platform, uniting established artists with emerging stars, seasoned athletes with passionate fans, and diverse communities. Spirit of Pakistan will forge connections and foster respect for every facet of Pakistani identity, right here in the heart of the UK.

Our ambitious programme is designed for everyone: captivating art exhibitions, soul-stirring music, thrilling sports, and vibrant cultural festivals. This is more than just a celebration; it’s a vital opportunity to bridge cultural gaps and showcase the boundless creativity and enduring legacy of the Pakistani community.

Spirit of Pakistan will be a truly unforgettable experience, enriching the UK’s cultural landscape for all, right here in Birmingham. 

Come and celebrate with us!
