The Venue

NEC Birmingham

By Car

You’ll find the NEC clearly signposted from all motorways and major routes including the M42, M40 and M6 - just pop B40 1NT in your sat nav to get close, then follow the signs when you see them. When you arrive at the NEC, look out for signs for SiD/ATHX. After parking, simply jump on the free shuttle bus, or take a leisurely stroll along the signposted footpaths.

By Train

You won’t even need to brave the elements. Direct services run all day, however if you’re travelling from further afield you may need to catch a connecting train at Birmingham New Street, which is less than a 15-minute journey away. For more information, visit National Rail or call them on 08457 484950.

By Bus & COACH

From Birmingham Airport you can get to the NEC via the free air-rail link, which takes just 90 seconds and runs every two minutes. Jumping on a bus in the West Midlands area? There are numerous options that will get you to the NEC. Check out the Network West Midland website to plan your journey
