In summer 2026, Birmingham welcomed our much-loved Snoopy sculpture trail – a brilliant free activity for the whole family to enjoy during the summer holidays.

Running from 9 July to 1 September, the trail featured twelve individually designed sculptures of the iconic beagle, each one perched on his doghouse and brought to life by a different artist.

Visitors found the sculptures dotted throughout Birmingham city centre at New Street Station, Great Western Arcade, Piccadilly Arcade, Grand Central, Bullring, Selfridges, Burlington Arcade, John Bright Street, Mailbox, Birmingham Town Hall, Corporation Street and Staybridge Suites.

The event also raised money for midlands-based Acorns Children’s Hospice and its services including clinically-supported stays for children at its hospices, therapeutic and psychosocial support, support for siblings and other family members, emergency and end of life care and bereavement support.

Produced in partnership with Central BID Birmingham and Peanuts.
