Venue update

We continue to follow Government guidance relating to our region and event venues. We are working closely with our customers so we can return to business as soon as permitted. Our principal concern remains the welfare of our staff, customers, suppliers and visitors.

Please check our What’s On page for the latest event information.

The NEC is currently closed to the public. An external walking route is available between Birmingham International Train Station and the NEC Campus. For further queries regarding the effects of the pandemic on the venue and events, please check our FAQs page.
