Birmingham City Women’s home meeting with Tottenham Hotspur will include celebrations ahead of Diwali and Bandi Chhor Divas. The club announced the plans on Monday, with the Barclays Women’s Super League fixture set for Sunday 1 November at St. Andrew’s @ Knighthead Park, kicking off at 2pm UK time.

Music and activities alongside the football

According to Birmingham City’s official announcement, Dhol drummers and bhangra dancers will perform in the Kop before kick-off and at half-time. Ranv’s Rasoi will provide South Asian street food.

Families can also find free face painting and henna art, while Fast Feet and Batak games offer younger supporters activities before the match. The programme gives fans a reason to make an afternoon of their visit, with entertainment on either side of the first half.

Blues return home after Charlton victory

Sunday’s game follows Birmingham’s 1-0 home win against Charlton Athletic on 25 October. Substitute Wilma Leidhammar scored the decisive goal in the 68th minute, a result also confirmed in Reuters’ round-up carried by ABC.

For supporters who missed that match, our Birmingham City Women 1-0 Charlton report covers Leidhammar’s winning contribution. The narrow scoreline is a reminder that the football itself can supply plenty of tension alongside a family day out. Spurs represent a separate challenge, and the Charlton result should not be treated as a prediction for Sunday.

Planning your visit

Use the ticket link supplied by the club to check availability and prices before making arrangements. Allow time for entry and any activities you want to enjoy, rather than planning to arrive only as the teams kick off.

If you are bringing children or someone attending for the first time, agree a meeting point and check your travel plans in advance. Keep an eye on the club’s matchday information for any subsequent changes. The celebration provides an extra reason to visit B9; supporting Blues remains at the centre of the afternoon.
