Bringing your exhibition to The NEC offers a greater degree of success for you, your exhibitors and your visitors than any other UK venue.

From large scale consumer events to niche market trade shows, we can provide the ideal solution for you. We have unrivalled experience and resources that bring new launch concepts to life; and for existing shows we provide the stimulus to achieve even greater success. We have a proven track record in attracting regional, national and international trade and consumer visitors and we deliver every time

The NEC is an immensely adaptable resource. We have a huge depth of support delivered through a single point of contact - each support channel is an expert in their field and they are here to ensure your exhibition works. We are committed to safeguarding your event as well as providing it with a solid future in a safe and secure environment.

Since we opened in 1976 The NEC has been designed with the sole purpose of playing host to an incredible range of events and in that time we have not stood still – we’ve built additional halls and improved our facilities extensively (the latest being the on-going £40 million investment into venue facilities) adding to the comprehensive services consisting of on-site contractors and hotels.

Even though we are a large venue, smaller events are just as important to us and our facilities can easily be tailored to each – this approach has resulted in us hosting 50 new exhibitions over the last two years.

Our market reach is vast – we attract visitors of all ages from all across the world. There are 19.5 million people within a 90 minute drive time of The NEC’s central location, why not invite some of them along to your event?
