The Birmingham Superprix is a motor race held on the streets of Birmingham, England.
The event was first held in 1986 as a round of the International Formula 3000 championship, later being part of a double header with the World Touring Car Masters before spiralling costs caused its cancellation in 1991. Shortly after, the Road Racing Bill passed through parliament - effectively banning street circuits in the UK.
A change in law in 2014 re-enabled street racing in the United Kingdom and as such the event was revived as a triple header in 2020, running as a round of the FIA Formula 3 European Championship, the Anglo-Irish Formula 4 series and as a non-championship round of the British Touring Car Championship.
