About the ICC, Birmingham

The ICC Birmingham is the UK's premier purpose built convention centre and its design and construction was hugely significant in its impact on Birmingham, the wider region and indeed the UK in the provision of cutting edge, high quality, flexible, conference space.

The ICC Birmingham is superbly positioned at the heart of the UK and its transport network. A truly international city, Birmingham is within easy reach of one of the country's main international airports, the UK's largest interchange rail station and a motorway network that connects The ICC to every part of the UK and beyond.

Birmingham New Street has direct and regular services to Birmingham International Railway Station which directly serves Birmingham International Airport and The NEC. It also has three direct services to London Euston every hour, a journey that takes just 80 minutes at peak times.
Birmingham New Street's status as a key part of The UK's transport system has recently been recognised by plans to spend £388 million on an ambitious redevelopment plan. The station offers regular services to and from every major UK destination which connects Birmingham and The ICC to the whole of the country.

Birmingham's two other city centre train stations, Moor St and Snow Hill, are also within quick and easy access of The ICC and directly connected to London Marylebone via an hourly service. Snow Hill is a short walk from The ICC and Moor St. a short taxi drive away offering even greater travel flexibility.
