BIA represented at The King and Queen’s Coronation

Birmingham Irish • May 23, 2023

Birmingham Irish Association were delighted to have been chosen to represent our community at the Coronation of His Majesty the King & Her Majesty the Queen Consort on the 6th May at Westminster Abbey.

The invite was in recognition of the response during the pandemic and the coming together of all sections of the Irish community to support those who were most in need.


From the GAA clubs and the business community to the countless volunteers and members of the Irish community in the region who supported our organisation during unprecedented times. We are extremely proud to accept this invitation and are humbled to be able to represent you all on the day.

With special thanks to …
