Birmingham is in Tier 3, along with the likes of Manchester, Leeds and Newcastle.
Earlier this week, the city council’s Dr Justin Varney, director of public health, warned Birmingham should “prepare for Tier 3”.
The news will come as a blow for many in the area, with pubs and restaurants forced to remain closed after the England lockdown lifts.
Health and Social Care Secretary Matt Hancock said: “Thanks to the hard work and sacrifice made by people up and down the country, we are able to move out of national lockdown and into more targeted local, tiered restrictions.
“I know for those of you faced with tier 3 restrictions this will be a particularly difficult time but I want to reassure you that we’ll be supporting your areas with mass community testing and extra funding.
“By following the rules together we can get out of these tough measures.”
