About Us | the NEC, Birmingham
It’s fair to say a lot has changed since HM The Queen officially opened the NEC in 1976. We’ve grown significantly in size and reputation for starters, to become the UK’s number one venue of choice for organisers, exhibitors and visitors. We originally had seven exhibition halls - today we have 18. Not to mention 32 conference suites and a host of additional outdoor spaces.
Pre-pay your parking
Need to pay for parking? You can pre-pay online in advance before the day of your visit and you can make a saving of £5* (T&C's apply). That's one less thing to think about on the day!
Car
Located bang in the middle of the UK’s motorway network, jumping in the car is the ideal way to get to the NEC.
Train
Getting to us by train is brilliantly easy as the NEC is located a five-minute walk away from Birmingham International Railway Station.
Plane
Birmingham Airport is right on our doorstep, so it’s hardly surprising we attract thousands of international visitors every year.
