Papal Visit – No Public Viewing Area at Birmingham Airport

To avoid disappointment, we strongly advise people wishing to see The Pope not to come to Birmingham Airport on 19th September as the departure event will take place in a restricted zone, away from all public areas.

The events of the day, including the airport departure, will be televised on BBC2.
