Let’s be honest. Bank Holidays are weird. They are a fake weekend inside a real weekend.
The Bull Ring knows this. It plays along. But only if you know its secret schedule.
On a normal Bank Holiday Monday, most of the Bull Ring opens at 10:00 am. That’s the golden hour. Not too early. Not too late. Perfect for a lazy start.
The 11:00 Am Club
Here’s where it gets quirky. Some shops are rebels. They don’t open until 11:00 am.
Who are these late risers? Usually, the big department stores play it cool. Think Selfridges. They like to keep us waiting.
You waltz in at 10:01. You’re smug. Then you hit a locked door. Oops. Patience is a virtue, apparently.
