Join us in celebrating Birmingham's Community!

Here are some of the activities we're planning for a great Picnic at Railroad Park:

Music: Let us entertain you at the Main Stage on the Regions Bank 17th Street Plaza with live music and performances.

Birmingham Showcase: Stroll along 1st Avenue South and visit local merchants, artists, and organizations displaying goods and information, highlighting the diversity and variety of what Birmingham has to offer. You'll find apparel, jewelry, home decor, art, candles and more!

Food Truck Row: What's a picnic without food? While you are welcome to bring your own picnic to enjoy, we'll have some of Birmingham's best food trucks offering yummy options to satisfy your appetite. NOTE: Cooler and bag checks will be implemented. Glass and outside alcohol violate Railroad Park Rules. We'll have a cash bar set up to purchase adult beverages for your convenience.

Lawn Games/Children's Activities:  A children's area will be filled with fun lawn games to keep the entire family engaged. Games will include Giant Connect-Four, Giant Checkers, Beanbag toss, and more!

99 Neighborhood Celebration: We are excited to recognize Birmingham's 99 neighborhoods and the officers that serve our communities. Please join us at the Main Stage at 3 p.m as we honor our distinguished guests in attendance. 

Reserved Picnics: Join us at the Piggly Wiggly VIP Plaza by purchasing a picnic lunch in support of Railroad Park. Located on a picturesque section of Regions Bank 17th Street Plaza this area includes shaded seating, complimentary boxed lunches, complimentary non-alcoholic drinks, and other amenities.
