One of my favorite things to see on my calendar is an upcoming Moms’ Night Out. As moms, we are all so busy that we have to be very intentional about setting aside times to get together. Since posting about this topic last year, I’ve come up with eight more ideas to help you plan a fun moms’ night out in Birmingham!
Hammer & Stain
You can attend a workshop or book a private party at Hammer & Stain and choose from a variety of DIY projects including porch signs, holiday door hangers, pallet signs, and more. They provide all of the materials, tools, and instructions and you get to take your creation home! Find out more here.
Location: 3704 Lorna Road, Birmingham
Wine & Yoga at Cat-n-Bird
On the second and fourth Tuesday of each month, this adorable winery hosts a fun and relaxing evening. Enjoy some sipping and stretching with your girlfriends! Doors open at 6:15 and class begins at 6:45 p.m. $20 gets you a class and a glass. Learn more here.
Location: 11661 Old Hwy 280, Chelsea
Mexican and Margaritas
If you just want to hang out and catch up and relax, plan a dinner out. My girlfriends and I are always down for Mexican, and there are some great options around the area.
Our go-to is Chuy’s at The Summit, but others around the area include also LaPaz (Mountain Brook and Mt. Laurel), Superior Grill on 280 and the newly opened Tostadas in Homewood are also great options. Nothing better than sitting outside in the evening enjoying chips and queso and a beverage.
The Marble Ring
I have only been here once and it was for a wedding, but it was such a cool spot. Tucked away in Avondale, you’d never find it unless you know it was there. You have to enter through the phone booth in Hot Diggity Dogs. Once inside, you take a step back in time to a 1920s speakeasy. If you feel like dressing up as a flapper go for it! Learn more here.
Location: 430 41st Street South, Suite B, Birmingham
Woodhouse Day Spa at The Summit
This newly opened spa is a hidden treasure at The Summit. Located in the Saks Fifth Avenue Plaza, they offer everything from massages and facials to manis and pedis. Slip on the cozy robe and reflexology sandals and settle in for a day of pampering, choosing from over 70 treatments. Check out their spa services menu for a complete list of services and prices. Find out more here.
Location: 125 Summit Blvd, Birmingham
Breakout Games Birmingham
You’ve got 60 minutes to solve the mystery and escape the room. With themes including Runaway Train, Island Escape, and Mystery Mansion, you and your friends can enjoy an hour working together to find a way out. Tickets range from $19.99 to $33.99. The more people you have, the less it costs! Get more info here.
Location: 2717 19th Place South, Homewood
Enjoy a Concert
It’s no secret Birmingham has a great music scene and draws some big names to the Magic City. I actually saw my first concert at Oak Mountain Amphitheatre back in the day (Counting Crows and The Wallflowers). Some of the bands I listened to in my younger years are still making the rounds! Here are some upcoming concerts that you could grab your friends and enjoy a rocking night out.
August 17 – Thomas Rhett (Oak Mountain)
October 10 – Andy Grammer (Iron City)
September 4 – Backstreet Boys (BJCC)
November 13 – Jonas Brothers (Legacy Arena)
November 23 – Sister Hazel (Iron City)
Studio Birmingham Create Club
The first Tuesday of each month, Create Club offers morning and evening classes. Get a group together for a night of creativity. Each month will feature a different style of art including calligraphy, pie baking, painting, wreath making, cookie decorating, and watercolor. Various creatives walk you through different styles of creating. Classes range between $35 and $50. Find more info here.
Location: 701 Oak Grove Road, Homewood

Goat Yoga at Teshua Farms
Whether you’re a yoga pro or have never tried it, this class is so fun. In addition to a great workout, you also get to watch baby Nigerian Dwarf goats prance around and even jump on your back while doing a tabletop pose. Classes are held on Saturdays at 10:00 a.m. and cost $25. Check it out here.
