Moving to a new city can be overwhelming at first. A great way to get away from unpacking boxes after your local Birmingham movers get you all settled in is to get out and attend sporting events in Birmingham! If you are feeling adventurist, you can also take a simple drive to see what else Alabama has to offer. You do not need to be a sports fanatic to enjoy these Alabama treasures.

One well-known landmark in Birmingham worth visiting is the Barber Motorsports Park. It was named one of CNN’s top places to see. Barber Motorsports hosts dozens of races a year and is a beautiful place to see sporting events in Birmingham. Be sure to look into the 2016 Barber Vintage Festival happening October 7-9. Whether you go for the motor races or stop by the museum to check out vintage motorcycles, it is a great place for the whole family to enjoy.

Now for our adventurist sporting fanatics, your local Birmingham movers suggest making the drive out to a University of Alabama football game in Tuscaloosa. It is roughly an hour drive from Birmingham, but well worth it. You will be able to personally experience the true Crimson Tide feel and witness the current number one school in collegiate football. Start planning before the season is over!

These are just a few of the sporting events in Birmingham that are in season right now. Fortunately, there are other opportunities in the spring and summer months, like attending a baseball game at Regions Field in Birmingham. Keep your eyes and ears open for more information about upcoming local events from your fellow local Birmingham movers to keep you in the loop after moving to Birmingham.
