Virgin Trains supports the launch of the Bear Grylls Adventure at ‘Bearmingham International’

We renamed Birmingham International ‘Bearmingham International’ for a week to mark the launch of the Bear Grylls Adventure. The new attraction located in Birmingham is expected to attract over 250,000 visitors in its first year, and we’ve worked closely with Merlin to offer travel packages to make it as easy as possible for customers to get the venue by train.
