Have you herd?
Get ready to witness the thrilling spectacle of ‘Bulls in the City’ as it charges into Birmingham during the summer of 2025!
The city’s next big art trail will depict the legendary Birmingham Bullring Bull, with 40 large bull sculptures descending in July as well as 88 calves.
Imagine wandering through the bustling streets of Birmingham, uncovering one stunning bull after another, each bearing the creative imprint of a local artist and proudly sponsored by a local business.
Working with Wild in Art, this colourful and exciting art trail will engage local communities and bring thousands of visitors into the city. All while raising awareness of Birmingham Hospice and the importance of the care it provides the people of Birmingham and their loved ones.

A bullish opportunity
Together, we’re making every moment matter
Birmingham Hospice is not fully funded by the NHS, instead relying on fundraising and donations to fund our services. Now, more than ever, our expert and compassionate care is needed to ensure people die in a place of their choice, with dignity and in comfort. But the cost of care is soaring, making it harder for us to care for everyone who needs it. We want to ensure we’re here for local communities now, and in the future. By taking part in Bulls in the City as a school or business, visiting the trail with your family or just sharing our message, you will make a difference.
Donate today to support your local hospice.
The Auction
After the summer trail, the sculptures will be auctioned off to raise money for Birmingham Hospice. You will have the opportunity to own a bull of your own and make a difference to ensure the future of your local hospice.

Rest in peace Ozzy Osbourne 🦇
We’re paying tribute to a true Brummie legend, Ozzy Osbourne, Prince of Darkness, and send our loving condolences to the Osbourne family and all his fans at this difficult time.
He was instrumental in securing Birmingham’s presence on the global stage through an iconic music career – but he never forgot where he came from, and neither did we as we wanted to ensure he was honoured on our Bulls in the City trail as his legend deserved.
Our two trail sculptures, Mr Crowley and Baby Oz, fittingly pay tribute to the Black Sabbath icon and we’re so proud to have these two sculptures on our trail to celebrate Ozzy’s incredible legacy in the city.
You can visit Mr Crowley on Harborne High Street and Baby Oz in Selfridges Birmingham.
